I just buy everything I can on American Express and use my flyer miles!

Travel alone, dress nicely, look & act professional. I've been upgraded 5 times to business or first class while in Europe (or on the way home). Never in the States, though!? Also, I usually am carrying my violin. I have NO idea if that has anything to do with it!

I've just finished reading Sean Ferrer's book about his mother, Audrey Hepburn. He says that she and Rob Wolders, her last companion, rarely flew first class because they considered it unseemly in a world where so many people did with so little. (She was involved with the UN children's fund at the time.)He didn't elaborate, but, my goodness... would you let Audrey Hepburn fly coach if you were the agent!!??

I cannot imagine them letting Audrey Hepburn fly coach but then what an amazing treat to be seated next to Audrey Hepburn in coach!
I usually just get a guy that smells like garlic LOL~

And Scarlett, I always get the one who insists his/her seat should be reclined as far as it can go.
