It depends on a variety of factors, including the airline, the route, the time of year, and the availability of seats.

On almost every flight, the passengers who get upgrades are either the ones who pay for them (whether in dollars or miles) in advance or frequent fliers with elite status who receive complimentary upgrades as part of their perks. There are very few exceptions, so don't expect to score a free upgrade by just asking.

All airlines have official policies as to when they'll upgrade loyalty program members. Unless an airline has a complimentary space available upgrade program in place, expect that you'll only receive a free upgrade if it's for operational reasons (like if economy is oversold).

Start by introducing yourself and expressing your appreciation for the hotel's services. Then, explain why you think you deserve an upgrade - perhaps because of your loyalty as a frequent guest or because it's a special occasion like an anniversary or birthday.

How do I ask for a business class upgrade? The most straightforward way is to call and ask. While they won't give you specifics, most airlines will tell you if there are business class seats available, and whether economy is full. Another way to find out is by logging into the airline website with your booking number.

Check Upgrade Eligibility Some airlines have a policy of upgrading by only one level, so if you're hoping to get a business class seat, make sure your original ticket is the grade below that (usually premium economy or equivalent). Not all fares can be upgraded however, so don't buy a cheap fare with that expectation.

Smart but understated. You should look like you travel often...it helps; someone who is potentially due to get an upgrade can be knocked back if they aren't dressed suitably. Essentially, you can still be comfortable, and elevated basics will take you far. Think casual workday chic.

NEW YORK (AP) — Ever wonder how airlines decide who gets a seat upgrade on flights? Airlines say it's strictly by the book: Loyal customers are rewarded based on their status in frequent flyer programs. But some flyers insist that once in a while, they get upgraded even when they've bought the cheapest seat.

MORE DETAILS

Most upgrades from economy or premium economy to business start around $400 and often venture up to $1000. For flights over 7 hours that include fast track, a VIP lounge and a proper bed- $500 seems like a reasonable offer- if the number is comfortable to you.

How can I get my seat upgraded at the airport? The free upgrade for the last seat or two are not awarded until boarding starts. All you need to do is take a credit card to the check-in agent or the gate agent and let them know you are willing to pay the fare difference between your ticket and the last seat in first.

MORE DETAILS

You can ask if any upgrades are available, but when you get to the gate there will be a flat screen monitor overhead that will show you the status of upgrades and standby passengers. Most airlines assume that all frequent flyers want to apply for upgrades, so you get put into the queue as soon as you buy your ticket.
