flying first-class is something that's
considered to be a privilege of the
richest people in the world with fairies
more than ten times that of the economy
class it's almost impossible for the
middle class and even the upper-middle
class folks to consider buying a
first-class ticket first-class
passengers are able to enjoy a much
higher comfort level thanks to wider
seats increased legroom funk style beds
and more privacy so is there a way to
fly first-class cheaply well it turns
out that there's more than one way and
this is exactly what we'll be revealing
in this video before we give you the
secrets to flying first-class at
extremely cheap prices make sure that

now we know that you can't wait to get
into that first-class luxury cabin so
without any further ado let's take a
look at the five ways to fly first-class
for extremely cheap number five
watch for the open seat if you have an
economy seat that's towards the front of
the plane then you might just have a
chance to get a free upgrade just when
the cabin door shots take a look in the
first-class cabin to look for any open
seats if you find one don't shy away
from casually asking the flight
attendant if you can move there while
the fight ends might not obliged to
request every time there's always a
chance they might say yes it's always
better to have some general conversation
first before asking for the upgrade make
sure that you catch them in a good mood
different airlines have different
policies when it comes to giving free
upgrades to customers while some
airlines are happy to offer first-class
seats as free upgrades most of the
airlines restrict their employees and
only allow them to offer business class
as a free upgrade either way you should
always ask the flight attendant for a
first-class upgrade if you see a free
seat the worst that can happen is that
they'll politely refuse you number four
I'll create a check-in if you really
want to pamper yourself and want that
first-class seat and then a great way of
getting it cheaply is to purchase a
check-in if there are seas available
chances are that the airline will be
offering them at a discounted rate at
the online check-in and in case you're
willing to take your risk in order to
get it for an even cheaper price then
you can simply book leak on your
business class and then ask the game
tenant if they're offering a first-class
upgrade at a discounted price most of
the times the airline ok with giving
away the first-class seats at much lower
prices just to fill them up with the
last moment
number three buy the points many people
make the mistake of buying from third
party websites
although there isn't much wrong with
that the fact that not all airlines
accept third party points can leave you
in
so it's always better to purchase the
points directly from your airline it
usually costs around 2.5 cents per mile
but various promotions run at different
times of the year and you get the points
for an even cheaper price so it's a
great idea to check your preferred
Airlines website on special occasions
like Black Friday Christmas prank and
4th of July for any offers and points
you might be able to get a first-class
seat for much lower price this way
number two use elite or airline credit
cards there are a number of mid tier
cards that frequently offer travel
rewards but if you have elite travel
cards and then you're definitely going
to get plenty of great deals cards like
American Express Platinum and Chase
Sapphire Preferred offer big bonuses if
you sign up and spend a certain amount
within a short period of time so if
you're a frequent traveler you can
easily get a first-class upgrade after
every few flights however one thing that
you should keep in mind is that many of
the bonuses and offers expire after a
while so make sure that you know exactly
when a bonus or an offer is going in so
you're not only able to earn them on
time
baris able to avail them when they're
still legit number one remain loyal one
of the biggest mistakes that many of the
frequent travelers make is that they
don't fly the same airline this might be
convenient in the short term but it
takes away the opportunity to enjoy a
lot of free upgrades and free travel
miles that one can enjoy because of the
loyalty to a particular airline almost
all airlines have loyalty programs there
or the frequent travelers with free
miles and upgrades however one thing I
should ensure is to keep track of the
expiration date of your free miles so
once you're doing the right thing and
increasing your free miles by flying
with one airline make sure that you're
reading the emails sent by the airline
don't let any points expire we hope

first-class travel at extremely cheap
