Too fracking right only fly first or business (if you have to).
Think of it this way. Do you really want to put your businesses primary revenue producing asset at risk from damage in cattle class?

And £3000 lighter.Originally posted by chef View PostSince I was first upgraded to Business Class on a overnight long haul flight I have never since been in cattle class for a long haul overnight flight and never will again. The difference for me is between getting to your destination early in the morning feeling grumpy, aching and tired and wasting the first day of holiday or arriving refreshed, pampered and ready to start the holiday proper..
Mind you, to NYC with just the wife, I'd definitely go Business Class.

Exact same happened to the wife and I, we were upgraded on our flight to Kochi from Dubai, and we've never looked back at cattle class. That was 10 years ago nearly.Originally posted by chef View PostSince I was first upgraded to Business Class on a overnight long haul flight I have never since been in cattle class for a long haul overnight flight and never will again.
You can fly business to NY for less than £1K these days, makes a huge difference, especially if you're only going over for a long weekend.

Flew business to Auckland last year with Emirates from Glasgae, was rather nice.Agree. Air NZ Business Prem is rather nice. A bit like BA First with individual rather than pair seats - means you don't have to talk to the wife and can enjoy the movies.Originally posted by chef View PostSince I was first upgraded to Business Class on a overnight long haul flight I have never since been in cattle class for a long haul overnight flight and never will again.

I like the phrasing against joining the mile-high club. "Keep your clothes on" Well, that's not much of a barrier, is it?
Anyway, the easiest way to join the mile-high club is sex on top of (or half way up) a mountain. Best attempted in summer, rather than a mid-winter blizzard.

Was reading the same story from engadget. Apparently there's a net to stop you straying too far into the aisle.Originally posted by Paddy View PostIf you look at the pic, three seats are not long enough.
