Do you know that a first class air ticket does not guarantee that you will fly this class. Airlines can safely deprive you of premium seats, and they are entitled to it.

"Honestly, when you buy a ticket, the airline is obliged to transport you from point A to point B, without any guarantees regarding the type of aircraft or the proposed amenities on board," explains the travel portal The points guy.

Unfortunately, lowering a class can happen to anyone. Airlines have different ways of making decisions about this. In some cases, this may be the last person with a ticket to the first class who checked in for a flight, or someone who has booked a ticket at a discount.

Below are five situations where you can be deprived of first class.

1. You create problems

The airline can land a person from an aircraft if he does not obey the orders of the flight crew, is a threat and not only. People were expelled from the aircraft because they говорилand in Arabic were dressed inappropriately or did not give paid place. Flight attendants and pilots are endowed with wide discretion to remove virtually anyone from an aircraft, if they consider it appropriate. In this case, a first class ticket will not protect you.

Even celebrities like Alex Baldwin were expelled from the plane.

2. Plane change

This reason is considered one of the most common when lowering the class. Often this is due to the change of the aircraft. For example, when booking a flight, a Boeing-737 with 20 first-class seats was to fly. But because of the changes to the gate drove Aerobus A320, in which only 16 seats are first class. Accordingly, you can become one of the 4 people who have to fly another class. In this case, the carrier either reimburses you the difference between the classes, or offers to rebook your flight to another flight.

3. Your place will give air marshall

After the September 11 terrorist attacks, the number of federal air marshall planes in the United States increased, and they fly first class. If the company can not clearly explain to you why you dropped the class, it is likely that your place was occupied by the air show.

4. The number of tickets sold more than seats

Sometimes it happens that the number of passengers who booked a ticket in first class is greater than the seats themselves. The airline believes that a certain number of people will fly on another flight, so it probably sells more tickets. While first-class resale is less common, it happens all the time in economy class. If you bought a ticket at the expense of miles or do not have status in the airline, you can lose your seat. It will be given to the one who paid the full price for transportation or has the elite status of the traveler.

There were also cases where airlines transplanted first-class people to accommodate their crew members.

5. You are flying with a pet

Actress Andy MacDowell was among those who dropped the class due to the fact that carrying with her pet did not fit under the seat. As a result, she was transferred to the economy class.
