Arrow what are my chances

hi,

not sure if this is the best place to post this question but here goes...


i will be travelling on my own to YVR sometime next week from LHR. This is after a shuttle down from manchester (which apparantly allows me to checkin for the international flight when i checkin for the shuttle flight).

i was wondering what my chances of getting an upgrade on my ticket are?(currently ecconomy) or second to that booking a seat next to an emergency exit to take advantage of the leg room.

i fly with BA and have seen their online checkin system.

am i best off trying that early in the morning of my departure or pleading with the checkin desk to upgrade me(i know that the online checkin doesnt allow you to upgrade but will using it early inrease my chances of sitting in the one of the emergency exits?). i'm travelling alone & only 17.

any tips from people who've managed it in the past would be greatfully appreciated.

or if any1 inside BA fancies helping me out a PM or email would be fantastic.

thanks...
