Start by asking if the flight is busy, perhaps mentioning that you'd be grateful for a window or an extra seat next to you as it's a long-haul flight — then throw in a hint about the fact that you're tall, or on your honeymoon, say. Every now and then, economy is overbooked and check-in will upgrade someone.

MORE DETAILS

If the seat is available, the passenger pays for the upgrade on the flight. So while you shouldn't expect a free upgrade on a flight, you can still ask for upgrades from booking till boarding — and you may be able to pay your way to a much more comfortable seat.
