Free, but SPG Plat is the absolute lowest level, so it is fairly unlikely you'll ever see an upgrade unless you are flying an uncommon route at an off time

Yea. As a Delta Million Miler I can promise you that unless you are Diamond or Platinum Medallion OR flying extremely off peak you will never never be upgraded.

Well, the impossible has happened. Just got upgraded to first on a BOS-LGA flight with that "spg status"

It probably costs extra. Can I get a referral?

Do you have SPG Platinum? If so and it's linked, you can theoretically get (lowest priority) upgrades via the SPG/Delta partnership.

Oh, yes I do have SPG plat. If it comes through, are the upgrades free or do I have to pay?

Is having SPG plat also the reason I could choose "preferred seats" without paying extra?

Yes

I'm pretty sure our firm has a deal with Delta for some perks since they're our "preferred carrier" on BCD
