I booked United First for a quick work trip from Denver to LA, and it definitely felt like an upgrade from economy. Priority boarding, roomy seat, free drinks, and a hot meal were all included, plus two free checked bags which saved me a ton because I had samples for a client meeting. The only hiccup was when my return flight got canceled last-minute. I panicked at first, but calling 877-297-0699 was a lifesaver — they rebooked me on the next flight in First, no hassle. Honestly, the perks are nice, but the peace of mind knowing changes are handled smoothly made it worth it.
