Honestly, I just get super nice and pretend I'm friendly. Became best friends with the older woman at the W in NYC and I'm 26F. She loved getting me upgrades.

No AC1 they ust feels superior to "the help" and don't bother unless there might be some benefit to them.

I am genuinely friendly with people because I enjoy it. As a side benefit I often get freebies like room upgrades, free parking, access to club room. Not that it matters much anyway.

Same as EY2. I try to remember names and details about their personal life.

Have been invites to many staff parties including their holiday parties and sports night.

I rarely am in the room and don't particularly care about upgrades. Bigger room? What for?

D1 are you also just hot and that gets you freebies? Just saying.

I have my go-to front desk staff at a hotel I stay at regularly. Not sure I flirt with them, but they make a point of recognizing me, I make a point of only checking I. With them. They always have the room I prefer reserved. We always chit chat. Just be nice and see what happens.

I'm painfully introverted so by the time I check in, I'm wiped from social contact.

I have a wee crush on one of the partners in my firm and I thought he liked me too, but neither of us did anything about it (which is entirely appropriate). That was all pre-Rona.

How should I go about this? (Especially given Rona?)

My dad is turning 60 in January, and it popped into my head that I could get him a bottle of champagne from the year he was born (1963). But my research shows that Moët & Chandon's Dom Pérignon wasn't produced in 1963.

Can any wine or champagne enthusiasts recommend a good 1963 vintage, or was that an off year for champagnes? And if that's the case, have any other recommendable 1963 vintage wines?
