Problem with one zone not getting heat

Problem with one zone not getting heat
I have a forced hot water system, and about 6 months ago we lost heat in the zone for upstairs. We had someone come in and they had mentioned that the zone was airbound. Not really sure what this means. This happened again, and I was looking to find out if this is something I can fix myself. I tried opening the manual lever to see if this would help, but no heat is coming out. Please help!

Is the pump for this zone running?????

Do you have any bleeder on any of the baseboard there. Even for one floor you need about 12 psi on the boiler. Is the auto fill working?? Is water to it turned on??? the pump for the zone will be in the pipes
Need more info on just what you have there.
