Once, after business had boarded and the economy folks were let on, a woman came through J and gave her row number out loud to her companion and then said (moderately snotty tone),
"Check and see if we're in the front row...oh wait, we're not, because we didn't pay an extra thousand dollars!" She was more or less looking in my direction when I looked up, so I said, in mock-helpful way,
"Oh, I didn't pay an extra thousand dollars either; Delta upgraded me for free, because they value my business. You should ask about joining their SkyMiles Program. The free upgrades are a great perk!"
A chuckle went through business but she did not share in the frivolity....
