Flight attendant reveals secret to get free first-class upgrade

Now this is some first-class advice.

A flight attendant shared her travel hacks to her 3.1 million followers, including when to snag the cheapest tickets and how to get upgraded to first class for free.

“First things first, if you want a cheap flight, look for flights on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays,” TikToker Cierra Mist revealed in a viral clip. “That’s when they’ll be the cheapest.”

She also suggested using a VPN to hide your true location from the airlines’ websites — since they tend to price gouge if you’re based in the US.

“Normally if you’re looking in the United States, they’re going to jack those prices way up,” she added.

Airlines typically move passengers around for “weight and balance purposes,” Mist continued, so a sure way to secure a free, first-class upgrade is to book your ticket in the very last row on the plane.

“If we do have to move people for weight and balance purposes, that’s where the flight attendant’s going to go,” she said towards the end of the video, which amassed 1.4 million views.

But if choosing to sit in the last row — just in the hopes you’ll get upgraded — isn’t for you, she also revealed other methods of snagging a first-class seat for free.

Being “nice to your gate agent,” she said, is one of the best ways to secure an upgrade.

“The miracles we can work when we’re given some Starbucks or a bag of chocolates,” she said. “Especially those long days when we have back-to-back flights and don’t even have time to go get some food.”

In other clips, she dishes some little-known secrets about the life of pilots and flight attendants and has even shared some hacks on how to join the mile-high club.
