It's been a while since I used a ZED, on anybody.
Some airlines, not sure about 5Y's have what's called a "high, medium, and low" ZED agreement.
But for the most part, no. A ZED is for a coach/Y class seat.
I know....I know.....SOMEONE is gonna chime in with "well, I used a ZED on (insert carrier here) and they upgrade me!!!!"
Hey, great for that guy. If they did it, awesome. If you can "socially engineer" it, great.
But again, a ZED is for a coach/Y class seat, don't expect anything more.

Actually, with Luf, if you show your crew badge to the f/a and ask to go say hi to the cockpit crew, they'll let you go. Be nice courteous and the Captain might put you in 1st class... done it, and the experience was amazing! Top notch lobster and Champagne flight to Germany...
so yeah basically what the above poster said.

I know most Atlas guys seem to take advantage of hotel points and airline miles; anyone care to share some stories about how long it takes to earn enough points/miles to cash in to some freebies???

Most of the hotels have been beat down on their rates so there are no points awarded. I get 40 some odd thousand One World miles a year and it seems they want 30k for any place I want to go to. Why AA posts you are number 17 for an upgrade on a flight with 12 F/C seats in beyond me.
