Flew TPA-LGA on 12-25 and LGA-TPA on 12-29. Mother HouseRulz77 and I traveling on companion certs (I'm FO, she has no status).
Both flights had F>2, Y>5 after gate ugs/ standbys cleared. I inquired about an upgrade on both flights. In both cases the agent would not upgrade us both. In both cases GA offered to split the PNR and give me an upgrade. So I think they will offer an u/g to an elite if the elite's ticket is paid and space is available. In both cases I declined (would never leave Mom in the back, and she wouldn't separate from me), but I appreciated the gesture.

DM on a Companion fare (Mrs. ab_initio has no status), BZN-SEA-LAS
9/12 seats open on BZN-SEA with 3 on list
6/9 seats open on SEA-LAS with 2 on list
both Mrs. ab_initio and I were upped both segments after asking the GA very nicely...surprised but maybe it's the holiday spirit and all.

Of course an OPUP is possible on one segment. The odds of it happening on SIN-NRT AND NRT-DTW (or even more segments if they weren't booked on the NRT-DTW nonstop) would be vanishingly small, honeymoon or not. Plus any upgrade on this route would be to BE, not FC, although there might be partner flights that have FC on some or all parts of this route, such as KE through ICN, possibly CZ through China and LAX.
