   No, me neither but look on the bright side if you're not 6' 2" like me, your legs probably get it easy in comparison.

   The only time I think that you'll get a free upgrade is if you are a frequent flyer and you fly on a flight that's not full.  Very hard these days.  However, I think there are certain airlines where you can buy an upgrade quite cheap.  You just have to check in early enough to see if there are seats available.  I flew from Cancun to Atlanta and bought a first class upgrade for $69 for a 2 1/2 hour flight.  I thought it was worth it.

   I was flying with a friend once and we didn't show up early, we just got to the airport when the airlines recommended.  My friend had some experience with dealing with airlines and what she recommended was just dressing up and looking sharp.  That's the route we took and the lady at the counter actually asked if we wanted a complimentary upgrade.
   We enjoyed the first class from Alaska all the way down to Texas. It was great!
