I am going on holiday soon and was wondering how i should go about getting a free upgrade to first class. The thing is that i work in ground ops on the very aircraft il be flying on so i was hoping that may go in my favour seeing as this aircraft goes on time ALL the time because of us guys/gals. (i dont mean that to sound like i think im entitled to an upgrade)

Any tips will be welcomed

Thanks
Dave

Give the Captain a call, tell him who you are, offer to buy vast quantities of beer at the destination........ works all the time. :):)

Buy a ticket that says "first class" or the like.

Just look at the Smirnoff Black Ice ad

What a load of old twoddle!! I work in ATC and the same aircraft gets safely to it's destination without killing large numbers of people thanks to all us guys/gals, but do I ever get an upgrade?

I've never had a Rolls Royce when I've paid for a Mini, either!
