What's new

Nonrev - First Class

Before GoFirst came about I had pretty good luck upgrading when I thought I would upgrade. Now, I don't think I've gotten a single upgrade. Envoy used to be the only real chance, however that will change soon enough with GoEnvoy. Sigh.
By the way the policy is written, your chances for an upgrade should not be any different now than before the GoFirst/GoEnvoy program. Those seats are to only be sold after elites have been cleared. We do know there have been instances at various airports where the gate agents have done gate upgrades to people willing to pay before clearing elites, though. Hopefully that practice will stop.
 
I just returned from Greece, and flew US to Milan and return from Rome. FC all the way from the West Coast and back....incredible, awesome service!! I feel very fortunate to be treated with such TLC

I am an employee so apparently those evil gate agents aren't giving us any preferential treatment.

Last time I got first was the 5AM flight ORD-PHX. I just ended up sleeping the entire 3 hours. I treated myself beacuse I couldn't get to Phoenix the night before, so I had to take the last flight to ORD and sleep in the airport! Ah, the things we do to get back to work.

I think getting FC on West metal is practically impossible. I was offered in once in the past four months (I didn't even realize I listed for it) on the red-eye to Boston. She wouldn't give it to me because I had jeans on (this is because I wasn't planning on flying first anyways) but geeze, everyone is going to be sleeping!!! Does it really matter than much?!?!

well, you probably looked better than 1/2 the people in First and you probably even looked better than many flight crews...when are those new uniforms coming?

Oh I did. I basically just came from work, which on fridays consists of my "i make us fly" t-shirt and nice jeans that you would wear to work. I swear I walked past a guy wearing a tank top, cut up jean shorts, and flip flops. I guess if you're paying for it these days it doesn't really matter, because we just want your $$$.
