No hard and fast rules on upgrades...It all comes down to the individuals involved, i.e. You and the Station Manager.
If you are smartly dressed, have a pleasant demeanure and are not acting like a complete tw@, you stand a good chace of an upgrade if there is space available.
If turn up dressed in jeans, sporting your favorite Leeds Utd shirt, and are being a to$$er with the check-in staff, your stuffed for any seat far less and upgrade.
If you manage to get on the plane, be thankful. If you don't get an upgrade, any amount of argueing will not bring that welcome drink any closer.
