    When I moved to Indonesia, I flew China air and was upgraded to business class. There was an outdoor area at lax that I smoked my last bowl of ganja before I left, after tsa inspection mind you, and it was a great experience. They even let me use the first class showers. All for the price of economy class and because I was willing to take a seat next to an emergency exit.

    You’re right, it is pretentious. It’s just their name for business class. They don’t have a first class product like emirates, British Airways, etc. Virgin have gone massively down hill from their old days. They used to be rebels, but now it’s about being woke, and removing the red lady, and having men in skirts to be “inclusive”. The fact you can fly on Etihad is the residents get served beluga caviar, for 3 grand less says it all. Although you were ripped off with a last-minute price. The average upper-class/business class return fare to Vegas costs around £2000

    • @Far2hip
      @Far2hip 2 года назад

      @@tonycarpaccio9550, agreed. I haven’t seen a price anywhere near $2000 USD in a VERY long time for that jump. Best values with true first class experience air travel (not the over the top stuff) for that sort of jump is gonna be in the $4500-$7000 USD range. Grabbing something last minute and properly timed for why your traveling could easily put you above $8000 USD quite easily. I’ve grabbed a couple super deals for around $3500 but that was definitely a fluke when they were just filling seats before the flight and I got very lucky with my timing.
      I was pleasantly surprised when I tried Finnair. Fortunately we had what seemed to be a very new plane and everything about the experience (even the food surprisingly) was quite good. The seats were a huge plus since they felt like they were made almost specifically for me.
      Virgin was a bust for me. I tried first class on Virgin but it was sort of an unusual environment to my plain old “jeans and sneakers” type of character for spending a long flight. Comfortable seats, but we felt everything just seemed so superficial and not very inviting for a long stay inside a plane. It felt very “showing off new money” if that makes sense. Sort of memorably comical timing on the flight was as we were commenting to ourselves about the comfortable seats but a shallow feeling atmosphere and then instantly afterwards I heard a few folks talking about how they deserved such an “upper class” experience, lol. Hilarious and we got a serious chuckle out of that outright snobbery, lol. Definitely sensed that they were the type that would LOVE to tell the exciting stories of all the expensive crap they have acquired, lol, so I dodged the possibility of any interaction. Like I said earlier, just felt too superficial instead of first “classy”. Know what I mean?
      Just rattling on, lol. First class is great to be able to afford, but definitely not worth getting ripped off to feel like you’re sleeping in a night club and you’re definitely not gonna find a flight to make a London to Las Vegas round trip for roughly $2000 USD. Them days are LONG gone. 😎😎😎

    Flat beds, personal cabin, 7 or 8 items on the menu whenever you want to eat, NOT when it suits the crew to ‘do a service’.
