Flight too empty & Photo Opportunity!

HI

Just a quick one. I was hoping for a sneaky AUP, but the upgrade price was £999 (WT+ to CW)

I know if I want to fly CW, I should just book it, but lets pretend that didn't happen

Was told the flight was too empty to offer any decent upgrades, only 5 people in WT+ and 77 on the whole flight.

What do you think the chances of

(a) getting an upgrade at the gate
(b) getting an upgrade from the Cabin Crew

I know chance is slim to none, but you never know!!

Flight is LGW to BDA (leaving in about 2 hours)

Also, as a subquesiton...

I am taking a couple of bobble heads away with me, to record their journey, for my wife who has a heart condition and she asked, so who am I to refuse (I know there is the question as to why I am leaving her, but that's a long story). Anyhow, was wondering what the chance of the pilot agreeing to having a photo or two of them in the flight deck?

Cheers
