Don’t you disgusting peasants even look up this aisle. You’re not worthy. Filthy cretins. - Air hostess, probably

Aw yeah man, gotta keep em guessin

People want mysterious shit, and shit other people are told they can’t have

Like affordable housing, equal opportunities and rights for all for example to name a few or something idk maybe

I never understood it, why the stupid curtain.

what

The cheapest one, since they are poor people.

Who touches you at night?

Lighten up.

Kinda harsh considering this just seems like a harmless joke

Stop being poor smh

I flew from Detroit to Heathrow in business class, then back the next day in Economy (ridiculous work reasons for the short trip), where I had the same crew on the same plane. The difference between the treatment I got in Economy vs business class was remarkable.

For flights under 4 hours I don’t personally see the bennefit, but the longer you’re in the air the more worth it becomes. On international flights business class can be the difference between being crammed in for 12 hours and being able to lay down like a bed.

Especially if it’s a transoceanic flight. Talking about sleeping flat on a reclining bedchair after eating a meal off bone porcelain dishware, single malt scotch from a glass tumbler.

Mask off, they put the best looking and most charismatic flight attendants up there, men and women, too. Pay them more, even.

It’s okay, but it is no first class. She’s still poor people, just not as poor.

Usually, yes. Coach or economy class really crams everyone in. In nicer classes you get more room, better perks, food, booze, etc. It’s it worth the extra money? Depends. I got the upgrade once, it was a whole different experience, quite pleasant to fly.

It is a significant upgrade but as someone who has taken numerous long cramped car trips I would not willingly pay for that level of comfort for a few hours.

It’s one of those “once you do it, it’s hard to go back” things. Priority boarding, roomy seats (or lie flat on many business international flights), free food and drinks (no food on short hops), etc. I find it worth it, if you can financially swing it.

Planes are miserable in coach on cheap airlines, it’s pretty decent on nicer airlines like Emirates, Asna or Qatar.

Business you basically get a recliner sofa with lots of space for your legs a bigger screen and a restaurant level of meals.

I did it last spring. I was against the upgrade. The lady said I couldn’t understand until I tried it, and (to my mild embarrassment) paid for our upgrade as a gift. This was SFO-MAD, on Swiss, open-jaw, returning from Zurich almost a month later. The round-trip upgrade was less than $2000 over premium economy.

It was 100% worth it.

The price, on a trip that long, wasn’t really noticable. The value was. What you get for the money is about the same as you would pay to eat lunch, dinner and breakfast at a nice restaurant (we don’t drink, but drinks included), along with a night at an expensive hotel.

This is exactly what we received.

We arrived early, had a three-course meal at the (stunning) lounge, we were served fancy soda as soon as we boarded, we were treated kindly and attentively for 12 hours, We were served two more very attractive meals (on ceramic plates with real cutlery) we slept comfortably in the lay-flat seats, and arrived refreshed and very happy.

Added to that basic summary are uncountable little details, like good soap and facial refreshing spray in the bathroom, little swiss chocolates, etc., that made the experience far more memorable and enjoyable.

I’m not set on flying that way from now on. However, I do now consider it to be a reasonable, attractive indulgence, rather than an obvious waste of money.

Business class is generally not hundreds of dollars more expensive.

Felt the same way … until I was upgraded one day now I look for business class sales. I’m a prudent snob now? 😁

Lots of people fly overnight flights places… it makes a pretty big difference to overall comfort to have your own space and something that turns into a bed.

I’m going to guess there’s a lot of things in your life where you spend more money for something that is better, more comfortable or more convenient.

But the value of money is relative. Spending another $2,000 to sit in business class feels unthinkable when you make $50k/year. When you’re making $500k/year it doesn’t seem like such a big deal.

Also, lots of people get a lot of frequent flier miles from working jobs with travel, so the actual cost might have been lower.

Me and my wife always fly business if the flight is more than an hour, I think it’s totally worth it.

For one thing, im a big dude, the difference in comfort is more than slight when you’re 6’4". Business vs economy is the difference between arriving at my destination ready to start the vacation or sore, tired, and grumpy.

We only fly maybe once or twice a year, so spending the extra cash on business means we can enjoy our limited vacation time from start to finish, instead of spending the first and last portions miserable

You may as well say you don’t understand why people waste money on hotels and restaurants on vacations when there are hostels and fast food available. The point of a vacation is to enjoy your self - and so if you can afford them, luxuries arent a waste at all

As someone who flies a lot as part of my job, I mostly use airline miles to upgrade my seat to business class. On a few occasions I cover the upgrade myself if the price is reasonable.

Why? Because as a somewhat tall guy, when I have a 10 hour flight a coach seat makes me ache for days. And if it’s an overnight flight, a business class seat actually enables me to sleep.

On business trips that only last a couple of days, the project managers sometimes approves business class tickets, so that we’re actually fit for work when arriving.

Any flights longer than 5-6 hours is usually when I begin to consider upgrading. Because then I have a chance to actually get some rest onboard instead of just sitting there, waiting.

EDIT: Business class comes with lounge access, and for some that’s also a plus, but my frequent flier level already gives me lounge access all over the world, even when flying riffraff-class. Plus business class also comes with extra luggage allowance, but I have that by default too.

I am telling you if I had the money I would do it every single time.

I hate every single minute of flying in the shitty normal seats, any improvement I would pay it.

Well I already do for the extra space, first rows seats and so on…I haven’t but sometimes I have been tempted to buy the seat next to me as well… but it would require to put somebody else details I guess and they probably with my luck simply fill the seat anyway if the passenger doesn’t appear.

Coach = like riding the bus

Business = like staying at a hotel

Also you don’t have a pilot license.
