4 Ways to Get Travel Upgrades Effortlessly

Travel upgrades are somewhat confusing for people. They’re not sure how to ask for them or take advantage of them when they’re being offered. The crazy thing about an upgrade is that it doesn’t cost more than what you were initially going to pay but it does offer greater comfort, convenience, and even higher levels of happiness. 

Up-Level Your Travel with Different Types of Upgrades

Upgrades are something all seasoned travelers should know something about. If they don’t, it’s well worth the effort to learn about them. That way, you have an even better experience than you initially thought you would. You get to enjoy the finer things in life without being stuck footing the bill.

Here are four ways to get travel upgrades effortlessly:

  1. Use Frequent Flier Miles to get better seats. Some airlines allow you to upgrade your ticket for first class by using some of the miles you’ve racked up. You’ll acquire this incentive with every flight you book and by using credit cards that offer Frequent Flier Miles as rewards. Do everything you can to amass miles so that you have a bank of them to use whenever you want an upgraded travel experience.
  2. Allow yourself to get bumped from a flight. If you’re not in a hurry to get to where you’re going, volunteer to give up your seat to another passenger. You’re often awarded for doing this by getting an upgraded ticket on the next flight. Some airlines will even allow you to spend time in their lounge while you wait.
  3. Ask if a better vehicle is available from the rental car company. There is no harm in asking if a larger or more luxurious vehicle is available especially if it’s not on a day where many people travel. You may find that the company is willing to go above and beyond to make you happy. It doesn’t hurt to ask because the worst that can happen is that they say “No.”
  4. Work with the travel concierge to get some perks that you didn’t initially know about. As a member of Xpirient’s exclusive membership club, you’re entitled to all sorts of upgrades delivered to you by your own private concierge. Make sure to inquire about the service so you’re able to enjoy premium upgrades at no extra cost to you. This is one benefit of membership you’re not going to want to turn down.

Experience better travel without paying extra. You’ve got options that help you get the upgrades available for you. In some cases, all you need to do is ask. People are willing to make your travel experience positive which is why they go above and beyond to ensure your satisfaction. 

All You Need to Do is Ask for an Upgrade in Many Cases

Take advantage of what is yours for the taking. There is no reason why you can’t experience luxury travel, too. Now that you know what it takes to get an upgrade, all you need to do is ask if one is available. There’s no harm in requesting what is rightfully yours.
