Both flights today had 2-3 empty seats in F and nobody on the waitlist. I've discovered as a Plat that I pretty much always get upgraded going on any flight in/out of Oklahoma City except for DFW. And, I almost never get upgraded going to/from DFW and rarely get upgraded beyond DFW. Needless to say I avoid DFW now if I can.
If you play your cards right, you can absolutely clear upgrades out of DFW as a plat. When I was gold (now plat), I cleared MIA-DFW, DFW-ORD,DFW-DTW,DTW-DFW and a few others. Only one I have yet to clear is DFW-PHX or PHX-DFW.
