Getting upgraded from the economy class is every traveler's dream. One lucky Imgur user flew from Hong Kong to Los Angeles and got upgraded to the business class.
This is their story.
Upgrading is almost an urban myth
Not many people are that lucky to go from economy to a business or first-class.
Most of us fly dreaming of champagne and some exotic dishes. Oh, and those gift bags we can't even tell whether they're real or just part of our imagination. And those beds you can actually sleep in!
For us, the upgrades are pure fantasy, almost an urban myth.
Since first-class and business plane tickets cost around 70% more than economy airfare, all we can do is look at the pictures and imagine what it would feel like if we were that lucky.
A simple case of moved seat
As Imgur user Humanbean10 explained, this was just a lucky coincidence.
However, they took photos, and we're already trying to find ways to get the upgrade without paying extra.
Michelin-star quality food
Flat beds, private screens, Wifi and fancy gift bags aren't enough.
The food is so extra that you get the feeling you're in a posh restaurant with A-list celebrities.
Emirates Airlines also have sauna showers and heated floors. Yet, we still want all of these delicious foods. Sauna on the plane sounds like science fiction.
Check out the good life of those who truly know how to live.

Naturally, people wanted to know more, and here are their comments:
