My parents were divorced when I was in middle and high school and I flew between each of them from SEA to FLL every month and was a UM, which was a way I got into this hobby. I remember I made Platinum on Worldperks one year, and got an upgrade on board with 1 seat left from SEA-EWR that had BusinessFirst seats installed. The GA came on the plane to move me up, this little 13 year old boy at the time. You should have seen the businessmen in suites asking the GA if she was sure she hadn’t made a mistake. It was pretty funny...

Same situation for me, but between Germany and South Africa. Had a GA come onboard an SAA A346 to move me up to J, was about 13 as well, the looks on people's faces were priceless
