Yes - before I was Silver Elite. Once for $75 IND-AUS (I took it!) and once $50 for Mem-AUS (I declined this one because I had the exit row and it is a short flight.) In the MEM-AUS flight they also announced that upgrade at the gate and I saw Moms with babys9? kids under 2 yrs old) pay for the upgrade).

Now that I am Elite the upgrades come frequently!
