Hello all,

I just wanted to ask for some opinions or advice on whether this would work or not.

I was once a Prestige flyer a couple years ago with AC although now I am just a regular (whatever its called). I have some Upgrade certificates System Wide and I am taking a flight from YYZ - LHR on Sept 3rd. If I go to the counter and present the upgrade certs even though I am no longer Prestige is there a chance that it might work? ... My fare is upgradeable as per AC so thats ok but I have to do this at the counter the agent told me on the phone.

I had a friend who lost his status a few years ago but managed to get the agent at the counter to upgrade him with the certificates. Does this all depend?

Just curious to know whether I should give it a shot. Thanks folks!
