Welcome to FT

One reason that this doesn't happen anymore is that the airlines have instituted policies of no favors/no waivers as the previous policy had been abused by some GAs. (ie friends, family, etc.)

You can still ask and the majority of the time the answer will be just like here - a polite no. Sometimes it will also be just like here an impolite no.
