These seem a lot more likely to work than "dress nice."

And as usual (especially for so many of us on FT), the hardest tip...is the last one.

I haven't yet read the link, but I get about 95% upgrades to First by doing the following:
-Jacket and tie on while checking in. -Smooth talk the agent while taking some urgent calls -Slip the agent a twenty Works like a charm. |
i presume youse guyz are talkin domestic. for tatl, only upgrades i have ever seen are in congestion with a cancelled flight, or over booking.

What about tying a cherry stem in a knot with your tongue and giving the GA/FA a wink?

I've tried #1, but I kept getting charged for overweight baggage.

I actually just sit up front and cover myself in a giant blanket/beach towel. If I can't see you, you can't see me and all is good. Hasn't failed me yet.

8. Give this list to everyone above you on the upgrade list. If they follow the advice, they might get kicked off the flight, thereby improving your own chances of getting that upgrade.

I've tried #1 on the list, but I made the mistake of offering a sporty, fun-loving mule. No wonder it didn't work.
