Any way to check flights loads or get an upgrade

Any way to check flights loads or get an upgrade?

Sister flying March 16 Male to Doha on QR0675 then QR9001. Travel agent booked economy but wanting an upgrade.

Is it full? How does Qatar work its upgrades? If needed have BA silver status.

Unless she is prepared to pay handsomely with cash (or possibly points but potentially unlikely on a codeshare) I would be advising her to expect to travel in the cabin she booked

I have never ever had a "free upgrade" on QR. On Etihad, it was probably 1 in 3 flights...
One flight I was so exhausted by the time we were boarding, that I asked on board if they had a swipe machine where I could just pay for a seat in J. It was a firm no, and this was as a QR Gold.
QR, however is good for consistent inventory on Avios and Q Credits, if you book at least 6 months in advance.
