I wouldn't say "unless" you're SE. But the lower your status, the hardest it is, especially since this is Y, not PY.

But the schedule change is a great point. Even if you only book a flight that can immediately confirmed, if there's a schedule change, your upgrade won't be carried over. At least it's all refundable.
