19 seats were available about 36 hours out for today's 11:35am departure. I sponsored 2 w/ PPs and they were at #2/3 for Polaris and they got theirs then. But absolutely no upgrades in week before, when at least 21 seats were available to begin with. UA just isn't clearing upgrades.
As far as I could tell, there were only net two buyups and/or new bookings in that week. Seems like not a whole lot of last-minute bookings for the flight.
