What are my chances for an Upgrade :-)

I have booked a F award IAD-LHR-IAD and am waitlisted for F on the return (I am in XC as of now) What are the chances that I will clear before the gate?

Here is the Flight info
August 29 2007
UA 925

As of yesterday it was F5 NF4

Please let me know what you think.

Not too sure what your chances are, but I wouldn't call them fantastic for clearing before the DM. Have you looked into other possible routings, maybe even flying through FRA so you can use the FCT?

Its F5 NF3 now. I was going to say that this route has a lot of OPUP's but it looks like Y and C are wide open so no help there (I guess cause its a midweek flight).

Good luck!

I prob wont fly another routing, because then I would have to make it a *A award. I also like the 4:20 PM departure, it gives me an extra morning in London.

BTW. There is no F class availible on LH on the 29th only F on UA or C on LH.

If there's still NF, I'd say your chances are decent.
