Can I request a business class upgrade?
Requesting a business class upgrade: what is possible and what it costs.
Quick answer
Yes — you can request a business class upgrade by paying the cabin difference, bidding where the airline allows, or asking at check-in for same-day offers. Agents can also check upgrade inventory when you book or change a ticket.
What to expect
- Short-haul domestic flights may not have a business cabin at all — first class is the premium cabin
- Bids are priced dynamically and can be rejected
- Complimentary international-style upgrades rarely apply to domestic US flights
