Since you are by yourself (and assuming that you aren't particular about sitting in a certain area of the place or seat location), I guess you could hope on it happening but I wouldn't count on it.
ETA: Upon checking in at the counter, you could request to be upgraded to first class. I've seen that happen on an occasion or two but, again, I wouldn't count on it happening. |
I read on one site that after you have the voucher, and find out they don't need you after all that you get to keep it, but I'm sure that depends on the airline.
I'm not sure pecuilar about where I sit. I did try to pick good spots, but pretty much all of coach suck anyway. I'll try to get upgraded if nothing else. I've heard dressing business like helps get the bump to first class.
