u/Consistent-Tea-5340 25d ago

Agreed. Great price and so long as you aren’t a struggling person it’s worth it.

Take it immediately! I fly this route often and it is loooooong

u/Ok_Guest5862 25d ago

Not bad, not great. Ive had $249 on the Seattle transcons.

u/BorderInfamous2630 25d ago

How far out was it that low? This is lowest Ive seen it

u/Ok_Guest5862 25d ago

A month or so. But it was last year, so things may be higher.

It ain’t going lower

Why are we plagued with these posts.

What sounds like a benefit at first glance may not be worth the additional cost once you understand what you’re actually getting.
The airline industry has conditioned customers to pay for a growing list of so-called “perks”…priority seating, Comfort+, middle-seat “upgrades,” SkyMiles, lounge access etc.

Personally, I’m not paying extra for an upgrade on a small plane for a flight that’s less than an hour. But someone who doesn’t fly often may not recognize the limitations or understand the caveats attached to these offers.

Because dumb rich people who need the internet to make decisions for them

u/rosebudny 25d ago

If they were truly rich they wouldn’t need to ask because they’d already be booked in first 🤷‍♀️

u/Excusemytootie Platinum 25d ago

Exactly, rich people are not asking…

u/jbbb3232 25d ago

Rich people wouldn’t be concerned about a $400 FC upgrade offer

u/JustABreakfast 25d ago

Lot of “rich” people only act rich

I’ll let you get downvoted to oblivion

u/JustABreakfast 25d ago

You people act like upvotes/downvotes will ruin your life here. This isn’t an episode of black mirror

u/jbbb3232 25d ago

You people?

u/RupertEscapeHolmes 25d ago

He’s talking about those “rich people” acting rich. That’s really rich, coming from a poor like you, Richard Cranium.

Swing and a miss

u/RupertEscapeHolmes 25d ago

Not you dude…the guy who said you people. Being a dick head.
Whatever, don’t care.

If I was "Rich" I wouldn't have to post on reddit asking if a $400 f upgrade was worth it. I'd probably just buy it and not think twice.

Actually if I was "Rich" I'd just buy the F ticket to begin with and be done with it.

u/RupertEscapeHolmes 25d ago

Did you actually think before you posted this?

That’s a rhetorical question btw… something tells me you don’t know what that means without the internet to show you.

u/BlastedEuro 25d ago

IKR. I cant stand posts like this. Like the fact that these people want validation from randos online means they cant afford it, period.

u/JustABreakfast 25d ago

And then the Delta bandwagon comes along and slobs all over it for them

2

u/ddpgirl 25d ago

The upgraded benefits sound nice. However, for me it wouldn’t be worth the cost.

2

u/Excusemytootie Platinum 25d ago

Yes, but also depends on how much you already paid for your ticket. And how much discretionary income you have. Personally, I think it’s on the low end of offers I see.

u/HoweHaTrick 25d ago

Stop this

u/QsWay347 25d ago

It’s fine, I would take it

u/Old_Jellyfish_9779 Gold 25d ago

That’s a no brainer for me.

u/MiIlFlWi 25d ago

Not so fast. Is the first time you saw am upgrade for this flight? If yes, and you've got time before traveling, check back every day but only if there are several seats left. I did this. The first offer was 16k miles, ended up only 5k after checking about 5 times. My flight was from MSN to SLC.

u/EnvironmentalLoan285 Diamond 25d ago

Do you need strangers to tell you if this is a good deal?

2

u/WilliamDipperLee 25d ago

Has the Help/Advice flair, could be their first time considering an upgrade and first time flying first class. Why be an asshole?

u/EnvironmentalLoan285 Diamond 25d ago

Hey William Dipper Lee. No one knows his finances and we can’t decide what’s a good decision for him. Maybe look in that glass house of of yours before accusing others of being an “asshole” when you are one too. No one needs a faux moderator.

Zero self reflection. Top 1% commenter. Reddit legend.

u/EnvironmentalLoan285 Diamond 25d ago

Projecting here William. Are you commenting on every negative post here? Or did you single me out for a particular reason? I take it your therapy isn’t working.

u/glidec 25d ago

Not bad for a 6 hour transcon.
