Here’s how to get upgraded to first class (simple and easy)

Want to fly first class without the price tag? Try out these strategies

Flying first class is the dream, but those cushy seats often come with a steep price tag. The good news is that you don’t always have to pay full price to experience the luxury of first class. The first time I got upgraded, it was pure luck. I had no status, no fancy credit card, and definitely no clue what I was doing. But thanks to an overbooked economy cabin and a kind gate agent, I found myself settling into a roomy seat, champagne in hand.

After that experience, I made it my goal to find out how to get upgraded as much as possible. So, follow these strategies if you’re wondering how to get upgraded to first class on your next flight.
