This is a new one (for me) and slightly frustrating. Had bid to move up to Rouge J on the return leg LAS-YUL later today AC1706. Was J3R3 up until yesterday then J1R1. Got notified at 36 hours that it did not clear (I put in a decent bid, not a lowball).

This morning I see they changed the 321 from the 12J config to the 16J config one which is now J7R7 and has 4 seats open on the seat map. I guess there is no way they may evaluate the bid again?

They were charging $1200 on the app to upgrade my flight yesterday (still old 12J config on app at that time) which is too expensive but I guess that is what I would be offered at the airport as well later today?

Edit: purchased upgrade at check-in for less than what I had bid so it all worked out in the end!
