Check in online for the YVR-YYZ portion only.
When prompted, put YVR as the departure city. That will allow you to
waitlist on that flight..

Technically two, but you should be able to get the person who checks you in at LAX to make a comment on your PNR2 that the cert was lifted in LAX and the gate agent at YYZ will almost certainly let you board - especially true if your upgrade clears in advance.

Anyway, you can find out by trial and error. Or by doing a more thorough search on FT.
And if that fails, some good soul will come out and give the the answer anyway. And you'll probably like it. Enough said.

Well I called for the YVR-YYZ 2pm flight upgrade....All the I-class are gone and i was put on waitlist....Right now J is showing 5 left.
This flight is on a 763-Xm'ed..
Would it be better for me to switch to the 3pm flight, but its the 762, J is showing 9 on that flight...not sure what the I is.
or the 4pm flight which is a 319 flight...and J is showing 5..
What are my chances that by flight time, I would clear the upgrade on the 2pm with J5, and being on a H class and SE?

Keep in mind that if you are not cleared before the departure date, AC might: (sometime ground staffs do not follow this rule, and .. who knows?)
1. Status (SE > E > P)
2. Fare (B > H > V > Q > L ...)
3. Time on the list (the earlier one get on the higher part on the airport list)

I have a question about combining waitlisting and confirmed upgrades.
Calling quite soon about a three-flight itin I have coming up, LHR-YUL-YYZ-DEN. I class is available on all legs except the first one, LHR-YUL.
Can I confirm the other two legs, whilst waitlisting for LHR-YUL? If it comes down to it I don't mind burning a cert for YUL-YYZ-DEN alone.
