An Air France crew was allegedly detained and questioned for six hours after arrival in Buenos Aires last month, after they refused to give a free upgrade to the daughter of a former Argentinian justice minister.

Apparently the crew refused the free upgrade because business class was full. (And fair enough, too!)

If this woman was so important, why didn't she just book a business class ticket?!
