PAID UPGRADE ON FLIGHT
« on: March 23, 2017, 03:49:23 PM »
recently i took a flight from Guangzhou to NYC VIA China southern airlines.
i wasn't really happy with my business class seat so i asked if i can buy a first class seat.
the flight attendant took out a form and $300 later i was sitting in first class.

i am flying this week from NYC to POLAND on LOT Airlines. anyone know there on plane upgrading policy?

For $300 they will let you sit in the bathroom. Really opening a can of worms with the Polish jokes.
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

I flew with LOT a couple of times, and they always announced about upgrade opportunities. LOT only has a Y, Y+ and C class. Their Y+ is a real Y+ cabin.

when did they announce?  they offering bidding but I am wondering if I am better off at the gate or on the plane than bidding.

What's wrong with the random airlines questions thread, if I may ask?
I don't sin, I give myself opportunities to repent.

Who said anything about getting paid? I'm not the one who figured out a way to feed my kids with likes. (How long before this thread gets moved to JS? )
