All depends on the situation. I was upgraded to Delta One on a reward ticket because they oversold economy and had to move everyone up the line. Made for a much more tolerable 14 hour flight.

Operational upgrade - economy may have been oversold or weight issues.

LUCKY!

I think it depends on the staff, availability, status, and what type of ticket you purchased (Basic Economy don’t receive upgrades)

They don’t! You got really lucky, that usually means they oversold economy. Enjoy :)

And let me know how it is- been really wanting to try it

I’ve always gotten the advice that when you want to switch jobs you should take interviews from places you’re not actually interested in, so you can understand your value in the market and have better negotiating power.

However, I feel really guilty about wasting their time and going all the way knowing I’ll just say no at the end. Wwyd?
