Tell the gate agent. Raise hell and probably get some miles if you email them

Happened to me after I was already sitting in the seat. It was incredibly mortifying to be walked to the back of the plane like I didn’t know wtf I was doing. Got a few miles...

Aircraft swap or Federal Air Marshal are the most common reasons. The seat was removed from first class inventory when upgraded so they didn’t sell it. Other possibilities are broken seat and a “must fly pilot” (eg, has to commute at the last minute to prevent a cancellation elsewhere).

It happened to me 6 months ago. I complained at the gate and the gave me a $300 voucher

Aircraft swap?

Fingers crossed that doesn’t happen to me today

I didn’t know that could happen

I was flying Chicago to Madison WI on AA equipment and earlier in the day my upgrade cleared. When I reached ord for my connection, I received a notification that there was a seat change and it appeared there were no first class seats on this equipment. When I sat down, the gate agent came to my seat and Made me sign a “ticket” look alike and said we are giving you a $300 voucher if you sign here. I didn’t tell them I had paid for economy. Bottom line- if you request for a voucher, they might come thru with one.

^Do they even raise the gear on a flight from ORD to Madison?

Try ORD-SBN (South Bend)

I’ve never heard of this đŸ˜©

I clerked right after law school and I’ve been working in BigLaw since (last 3 years). I’ve always thought career clerking for the right judge would be incredible and I may have the opportunity to do so in the next year. Has anyone gone from BL to career clerk? Interested to hear about others’ experiences and if anyone can advise where I’d likely come in on the JPS with 3 years experience and a year of prior federal clerkship service. Thanks!
