UA Domestic First SFO to Orlando. Disney's Epcot Center
I flew to Orlando for business. My company bought an economy class ticket, and I was upgraded since I was a 1K. I bought my ticket months before, so I was able to get upgraded on the A319, which has very few domestic first class seats (eight).
I was there mainly for business, but I got one night off, so I went to check out Disney's Epcot Center. I show a brief clip from Epcot in the evening.
I hope you enjoy my commercial-free video:

Thanks very much!
I am not sure what you mean. I thought non-rev is for flight attendants and pilots who work for the airline? I am missing something? I don't work for United.

Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah, I do both. 95% of these trips are for work, so somebody else is paying for the flight.

Just curious, how does buying months before help as a 1K upgrade? I thought once inside the window time of purchase didn't matter for complimentary upgrades? Or Did you use a CR-1?
