Back from my Cybersavers weekend.
Purchased ticket Wednesday 9/6.
Outbound, Saturday 9/9. Called midnight before, hadn't been auto-upgraded, got upgraded.
Inbound, Monday 9/11. Called 11am day of, FC full, no upgrade. Agent said auto-upgrade was now in effect. She didn't know how priority was assigned within elite levels. It ended up being a full flight, with FC full (12, DC9) and 5 on the FC waitlist.
