My particular problems are slightly more complicated than economy to domestic first on the same flight. In one case, I want to fly on the same route, but on a flight that is three hours later than the one I have booked. In this case all the direct flights are RJ's with no first available. In the other case, my reservation is for a ridiculous connection (in first) that starts about 24 hours later than I want. I'm wait listed for direct flights when I want them, either in economy or first.
