Taking the lady on a surprise 4th of July mini vacation. I don't have points bc of local client, wondering how I can upgrade to first class without breaking the bank (southwest). Life hacks, anyone?

If you're flying southwest, there aren't any first class upgrades unfortunately :/ Best you can get is priority boarding (A1-A15) or early bird check-in.

Domestic US first class is cheap AF. You'll be fine. And this is from someone earning Canadian dollars.

A1-A15 is a $30 per person upgrade
