Just booked a 6 legged flight to HNL and here were the upgrade offers at time of purchase:

Flight 1
  • Date : Dec 10, 2019
  • Flight : YYZ > ORD
  • Offer : $133
Flight 2
  • Date : Dec 10, 2019
  • Flight : ORD > SFO
  • Offer : $319
Flight 3:
  • Date : Dec 10, 2019
  • Flight : SFO > KOA
  • Offer : $378
Flight 4:
  • Date : Dec 17, 2019
  • Flight : KOA > LAX
  • Offer : $378
Flight 5:
  • Date : Dec 17, 2019
  • Flight : LAX > ORD
  • Offer : $319
Flight 6:
  • Date : Dec 18, 2019
  • Flight : ORD > YYZ
  • Offer : $133
All tickets booked into G class. No doubt all these CPU eligible flights will clear at T-48

I also had a flight last week LHR > YYZ (via ORD) booked into K(ettle) class that had some interesting upgrade offers:
  • Sep 10 - LHR > ORD upgrade was $6,535 from purchase to around OLCI after which time the offer fell to $659
  • Sep 10 - ORD > YYZ upgrade hovered between $100-$300 USD to around OLCI after which time it sky rocketed to $2,187
Upon boarding the flight to ORD I was able to quickly see why the offer fell so much - the J cabin was half filled (which also explains why my waitlisted upgrade cleared).

Safe Travels,

James
