Would I rather sit in first class, or have the choice between the first-class fare and the coach fare? I bet that I already know what your answer is. First class. First class seats in America are usually around $1,300 dollars, which is very expensive due to inflation/price control. Is $1,300 dollars really worth a few hours of luxury. According to Business Class Experts, “First class is great, and can make long flights luxurious and enjoyable. However, the price that comes along with all the fabulous amenities is a lot of the time, less than desirable. The truly luxurious first class cabins are available only on limited routes.” So the ride is better, but the price is terrible. Now what about Coach fare? Coach fare is not as expensive as first class, but it’s still more expensive. According to Longman Business Dictionary, “coach fare American English a standard air fare that costs less than the first class fare but is more expensive than the cheapest fares. Most business fliers travel on full coach fares that are readily acceptable for travel on any available flight.” So if you haven’t already chosen, What do you choose now? If price wasn’t a problem, I’d chose first class. But since it is I would prefer Coach fare. It’s only a few hours, so I can suck it up. It’s better to spend less money and have a not to good time than to empty my bank account and have a few hours of luxury.
