Yah right..! i hear you saying.. but it’s true.. you can get the upgrade if not .. a more comfy seat.. without paying more .. so help me GOD..! These days, the airline seats feels like motorcycle covers donch they..?? These days .. to fly economy is just asking to be tortured. Not only are the padding so thin. And the seats seems closer.. and they always seems to be overbooked.
But did you know that economy fare can be upgraded for free to business or first class. So look for the Y-UP and the Q-UP fares that allows you to do it.. but they’re not fully refundable. Buy them online (e.g., search for “all types” of business class fares on Travelocity), by phone from your airline, or through travel agents. A great tip to know eh.
