Winning :)
“I always went the extra mile to look sharp, and it generally resulted in an upgrade to an empty first class seat!
Me, too! I had an awesome winter white wool suit I’d wear when checking in at the counter (not the gate) before a flight. My lucky suit — always got upgraded! Even flying from AK to HI, I’d put on that WOOL suit. It was hot when I got there, but so worth it to be in first class for 6 hours. I’m not sure, but I don’t think the airlines are as flexible with those kinds of things as they were pre-9/11.
