Occasionally a flight attendent will come to you and tell you that you can move up after you've taken your coach seat.</font>
ONLY after the gate agent has brought a new boarding pass to the FA. Don't ask the FA's to upgrade you. We are not permitted to do that and can even lose our jobs for doing it. Upgrades are the sole responsibility of the gate agents.(Yes, I know there are FA's who have moved people up without knowing who is next on the list.) You can always inquire with the agents working the flights about you chances of an upgrade.
