Who wouldn’t like to get a free upgrade to first class, especially during a long flight? Probably everyone would – or at least most of us. However, it’s very unlikely that everyone who wants it could get it. You need to be very lucky or be loyal to the airline – and if there’s a possibility, it may be your lucky day.
One Reddit user had a similar situation – as she was a frequent traveler with the airline and had the most status out of all the passengers, she was offered a free upgrade to first class. However, according to her family members, she should have passed on the upgrade to her brother.
