A friend of mine was talking the other day about the fact that I always fly first class (I don’t if it is under 3 hrs btw but always hope for an upgrade). He asked if I had ever seen the YouTube clip from Brian Regan about 1st class passengers? I said who is Brian Regan? If you have not seen this, get ready to enjoy!
Enjoy the rest of the day off MONDAY is on the way – René

I would guess that maybe 10-20% of first class passengers are full-fare flyers. Almost everyone seated in first on any given flight has been upgraded in some fashion.

First class is a complete waste of money to purchase
@John – no argument from me here, I am talking miles at low level for 1st class or LUT class tickets and then medallion upgrades! – Rene
