Though neither of my 2 bosses would expect it or begrudge me sitting in first, I'd offer either of them my upgrade if I got it and they didn't. I'm very much a junior guy, but I read FT and know the system better than anyone else at the company (I think.) I also just respect them a lot and would be pleased to give them the upgrade.

I know everyone doesn't bosses as cool as mine, so I consider myself very lucky. I do think it's based on personal relationship, because at my last company I don't think I would have offered my boss my upgrade. I respected him businesswise, because he was (and is) wicked-smart, but personally I didn't have as much affinity for him.
