My ex-wife is American and we'd fly to the US (I'm in the UK) once a year when we were together to go see family.

We'd usually fly premium economy for the extra luggage allowance and slightly nicer seating.

When her father passed away the trip over tete had 1st class at only a modest increase from premium, I'm guessing due to a desire to fill the seat at short notice.

Given the situation I decided to get the upgrade, and it was absolutely worth it.

100% the go to move. I do business class on the overnight and premium economy on the day flight on the way home (if it’s a lot cheaper, anyway).

If it’s <100/flying hour from economy that’s my threshold for “worth it”.

That's it. I can sometimes get that on flights from Denver to EWR (or close enough), and it's always worth it. Plus, I try to drink the money back in beer and wine.
