i almost flew 1st class once. coming back from london i was in line to check in and they were going along asking people if they would take the later flight and they could sit in 1st class. i was so psyched, i was flying virgin which is pretty nice anyway, so i really wanted to take the bump, the next flight was only a couple hours later anyway. but then they got enough people about 5 ahead of me, i was sad :-(
