In my experience, taking a demanding stance is a very good way ensure you will never get a nice upgrade. Honey, not vinegar, gets the upgrade. And there is a large amount of randomness to it -- they give the 2, 3 and 4+ class upgrades when they have extra cars sitting around.

Ford Fiesta is a B (compact) which is one class above A (economy).
