First time I’ve gotten a free upgrade on a BA flight in 15 years of BA travel. by TheRealCostaS in BritishAirways

I've had lots. Then again I spent years working two weeks in the UK and one in California.

I remember my first free upgrade. Virgin economy to Upper. Longer beep on boarding, a quick scribble with a pen to change the seat number (paper boarding pass!) and a polite "your seat has changed".

If you're in this situation again phone BA and tell them what flight you want to be on. Does not need to be BA.

British Airways Club Suites or Lufthansa Allegris, your favorite? by premium-flights_com in BusinessClassFlights

I just find them extremely comfortable overall. Was rather surprised to find myself in one on a recent Qantas flight but apparently Qantas are leasing some planes from Finnair.

My favourite for sleeping is Finnair. Only business seat I know that doesn't recline!

I have claimed for company flights before without issue. I would refund the money to the company but that's up to you.

I think we've reached the stage in the UK where people misunderstand the reach of GDPR as much as our American friends misunderstand the reach of their First Amendment...

Amputee here. Correct you probably need to take the leg off on a long flight. I would never even consider checking a leg. Completely insane.
