How to Use Continental Airlines First Class Upgrades
First class seats on airplane flights can make travel seem more like a brief hotel stay. Many airlines, including Continental Airlines, offer amenities such as priority baggage checking, spacious leather seats, complimentary alcoholic beverages, complimentary blankets and hot towels, better entertainment options as well as fine dining in flight.
Continental Airlines' OnePass Frequent Flyer program offers upgrades to First Class or Business Class based on accumulated miles. You can also upgrade yourself to a first-class ticket by paying a fee or redeeming OnePass miles in one of three ways.
