So we can all get a handle on how they are going to work in the real world, how much they will cost, et c.
Post flight, date, route, original fare basis (T, T+, Lat, etc), and if known, seat inventory (i.e. J9, C7, Z5, I3). If you do upgrade, please also let us know how many empty J seats there were in the cabin, if any. And if you were considering a certificate upgrade, why or why you didn't opt for the LMU.
It would be helpful if this thread could be limited to "just the facts" and no discussion, which could be posted elsewhere. That should make this thread more useful for everyone.
Should anyone want to discuss LMU's further please post in this thread:

did you bite on one of them? Was this at T-24 hours? Do you know if it was J9 at the time? Some might bite for the J LMU

AC 084 - YYZ-TLV - Jan 5th.
J4 C4 D4 Z4 P0 R0
From Tango (I believe K Fare)
Business - 994 USD
Premium - 384 USD (Only three middles left)
Declined but the Business is tempting and seems to be a good value. However, flight looks fairly open in economy so I should have an empty middle seat which diminishes the value of the premium cabins for me. I also had a Bid in for Premium Economy at 315 which was declined. Here's to being 6'4" and spending 10 hours in Y!
Edit: Looks like two people have taken the upgrade offer for Business, now showing - J2 C2 D2 Z2 P0 R0
Business now 1186 USD.

Fee Breakdown:
Paid Upgrade to Business Class AC974 YUL-BGI - 234.00 CAD
Fee - 234.00 CAD
Yes I bit.
Original fare was tango. This was at OLCI 24 hours out. I had been offered to upgrade by email a few times, but it looked like they were looking for $350+, so I ignored. Need to claim back my preferred seat fees.

Sorry should have been clearer. J=2 at time of OLCI, four of us already in J. That was her LMU offer and she has no status. All separate PNRs. She got an OP UP
