My upgrade hopes are for the 747... I long ago wrote off any hopes of upgrade on the 757 because I'm sure there's more than 24 1Ks on the flight, let alone paid-F, to get down to my lowly US Gold status
Edit: Eep, F1 C0?

Ouch. Guess I'm stuck way way way in the back with this one... or I'll start prayin' to the oversold god
Thanks for the answers

You can also try and snag a different seat (i.e. E+) at the gate. If ANY upgrades happen they usually free up some choice seats in E+.
