Dress for First-class
Have you ever been bumped up to first-class before? For the lucky people who have, they know that flying first-class and economy are worlds apart. Not only do you get priority treatment from the cabin crew, but you might even get a chance to chat with the pilot, just because. Pretty awesome, eh?
One person said that the chances of being bumped up to a first-class seat are higher if you dress for the part. If there are empty seats in the first-class section, the cabin crew will prioritize people who look like they’d fit in with the environment. If you’re comfortable flying in a suit or blazer, you might get an upgrade!
