You would think Business Class would be more expensive than coach on Delta, but think again! On an upcoming transcontinental flight from New York, after I had selected seats and confirmed my reservation, I was given the option to upgrade from coach to either Business class or Comfort+.

When Business Class Is Cheaper Than Coach

Naturally, you would think Business Class would be more expensive, but to upgrade from my Q fare in coach it’s only $54 vs. $119 to upgrade to Comfort+.

I can’t imagine anyone paying more money to upgrade to Comfort+ over Business Class.

Good job Delta on this one…

Have you ever run into a situation where first/business class was cheaper to upgrade than a better seat in Coach, feel free to share below!
