How to get an upgrade

You’ve read about how I got transfered to business class with Singapore Airlines. That was plain luck. The big question is, how do you get upgraded to business or first class when you check-in?

MSNBC.com and Forbes.com gives us some tips how:

Resist Outright Bargains
The class of ticket you buy often determines the likelihood of an upgrade. Travelers who buy full-fare coach seats have a better chance at getting into first class than those who choose discounted seats, which often aren’t upgradeable. It’s easiest to find and reserve full fares by talking with a telephone agent directly or using an airline’s online booking system where classes of fares are clearly marked.

I think I’ll stick to buying discounted fares and crossing my fingers, wishing somebody wants to change seats with me. I would love to experience flying first class someday; right now it pains me to look at first class ticket prices. Besides, flying economy is a big part of the aventure, isn’t it? 😉
