At 6ft tall, flying is not my favorite pastime…and I usually depart the plane with bruised knees from the seat lowering down in front of me.

Fly Away Cafe, says getting an upgrade when you travel is all about approach:
“this is a time for politeness, and graciousness, to the person who is in the position to do you a favor.  I’m not suggesting that you pull a major suck-up act, that’s just an [sic] offensive as bluster, but good manners matter in this situation.”

Fly Away Cafe goes on to tell us how to get upgrades with and without fees … Lovely … And how to avoid flight delays. 

We love it.
