Upgrades
Okay so I think I may be putting my head above the parapet and asking for a load of abuse here but what is the best way to get an upgrade on a plane.
I work for a big multinational but in a world where cost saving is the new religion we have to fly within Europe in economy class. I fly quite regularly from Istanbul and get really fed up sitting around the airport. Lounge access would be nice, especially for early morning flights. Also, for flights to the UK and Amsterdam economy is a bit of a drag.
So, what is the best approach for a free upgrade to the comfy seats and lounges? I never get enough airmiles for a lounge access card cos we use different airlines all the time.
I have had a few upgrades but it all seems fairly random to me.
