Have You Ever Transitioned to First Grade Without Paying for It?
Of course, you can fly first class if you’re willing to shell out money or travel rewards. And it can be worth every penny. But even better than paying for first class is getting it for free. If this happened to you, we want to know your secret.
This is not common, but it does happen from time to time: someone gets lucky and gets an upgrade to First or Business Class for cheap, or better yet, free . Maybe the flight was full and you bargained for a nice discount. Maybe you were very nice to the flight attendant who decided to throw you a bone. Regardless of how you end up in first grade, we want to know about it.
So tell us – if you’ve ever upgraded for free or cheaply, what happened and how did you do it?
