[quote=Anonymous]I used to fly a lot, and used to be upgraded regularly.

This also happened a few times when I was traveling on vacation with my little kids (I was upgraded but they weren’t), which meant I had to ask the person who ended up in my original selected seat, to switch.  Given that for them the switch was an upgrade, no one said no (even though one woman wanted me to carry her carry on up front to my new seat - at that point, I just told her to stay in her seat, at which she quickly carried her own bag). But things happen op, not everyone is a frequent flier, not everyone can afford to add 1000$ for seat assignments, not everyone knows to do that, and different airlines have different rules, so someone flying southwest would find it hard to figure the rules on a different airline. Some allow selection 48 hours before, some only at check -in. If you fly consistently same airline, you learn. But if you’re someone who flies once a year during holidays, it becomes a hard learning experience.

And people travel. If it doesn’t work to switch, just say no. Be gracious. Be kind. Be gentle on your own nerves.[/quote]
