By the way, I’d be interested to know if any ex-LHR Plusgrade’s now collect additional APD. LO is doing this since a week I’d say.
huh? additional APD? what's that? : ) what has been changed recently?

Is there any consensus or even just data points / experiences on how much more likely or cheaper it is to get an upgrade to J from PE than from Y? Also what the priority is between plusgrade upgrades and eVoucher upgrades? (Can you waitlist an eVoucher and place a plusgrad bid for the same flight? If not, what gives you the better chance of getting upgraded?)

Any recent DP for LAX-VIE please? Bidded €495 (minimum) and thinking about the success rate. This route seems to be newly added and suspend during COVID.

Unfortunately being rejected, although I thought this is a fair offer.
Looking at previous DPs, it seems that if they wish to accept it they will do so soon after 72h, but not wait until the 48h deadline. Also there is only 1 business ticket left so they probably want to save it for the last-minute passengers.

With OS I've had very good results when bidding low, but next time make sure to bid a tiny bit above the minimum since that's what most people bid, and doing so will put you above many bidders. If the lowest is 495, big something like 502.
