Does anyone have feedback on bids that are likely to succeed in upgrading from Premium to J on a 787-9 going YYZ-YYC?
The bid range is $130-$300. ($300 was the price difference between W and J at booking).

That's probably the sweetest deal I have ever had for such a long trans-continental flight

One new thing I learned about Bid Upgrades: If your bid is accepted and your CC is charged, no refund will apply to you incase you change your booking to a different date and you will be booked in economy class and need to make a new bid.

Bidding on an upgrade to Business
Hello folks,
My wife and I are flying from Toronto to London Gatwick on the dreamliner, and I have a few questions.
I purchased premium seating but received an offer to upgrade to business (PODS), The offer ranges from $350 per guest to $650 per guest. Is this range lower than normal because I already have premium seats, or someone who purchased a regular seat have the same offer range?
What would be an acceptable offer (There are 9 business class seats left and the flight leaves in 2 weeks)?
Is business class full service now with Covid and all?
Thanks for any advice!

I think $ 400 should be a reasonable bid with all that number of empty seats.
