Made me laugh, Dan. I never thought of overhead air vents as "opulent." I'm vintage, from the old 707 and 727 days. Air vents were standard then, and I know they're not now. Thanks for the "how did I book this" ending, very helpful.

That comment about the limited choices "due to free upgrades' seems unfair - not only because you should be treated the same in business class whether you got in with points or cash, but because imagine if you'd paid the full business price and you had a limited on board experience because of that?

@bear.94 Жыл бұрын

They plan how much food to put onboard well prior to boarding. If too many people upgrade just prior to boarding, the food especially the upgraded options will be limited as they don’t want to waste food and money. Or time to scramble last minute to get more food just in case someone who they didn’t know was planning to sit in business class wants something else.

@jdonovan2000 10 ай бұрын

I work as cabin crew for a subsidiary of a major airline. Typically on the short haul flights in our business cabin, we serve any free upgrades last as they were the last ones to get a place in the cabin - to ensure passengers who paid in advance get the full experience.

.last minute upgrade some time they are not inttitled for a meal coz they don't cook the meals on on board they have to contact the catering department. And it can take sometime up to 50 minutes so definitely they won't delay the flight 50 minutes for somebody s meal .dubai airport is a huge airport and everything is planned and prepared ahead .last minutes request is usually hard to get not coz the crew are stingy but coz really they don't have it on board

Last minute upgrades are the way to go. I upgraded on Uganda Airlines' A330-800 from Johannesburg to Uganda (stage length of 4 hours) for just $210 the other day. Had I gone for the bidding process, the minimum bid would have been $375.

@joansaunders-reece2895 Жыл бұрын

I would never use Flydubai again!!! In February I flew from London to Dubai on Emirates with a 90 minute layover and from Dubai onwards to Muscat all full fare Business Class. The outbound journey was good but on my return flights they downgraded our Business Class seat as they decided to use a smaller aircraft which was packed. My husband is 6ft 4 ended up being squashed in a seat in row 17 with no legroom whatsoever, we tried to get a seat with extra legroom and they just didn’t want to help. I had to battle to get a refund from them as they initially refused to pay us back the difference NEVER AGAIN Flydubai!!!

@lzh4950 Жыл бұрын

SQ had said that these seats are compatible only with the 737MAX & not its older 738s; hence the seats' rollout was delayed by the MAX's grounding. Which surprised me as I thought the only difference between the MAX & the 737NG were the engines & the cockpit, plus further stretched versions being available only on the former

I really wonder what is the point of Business Class without direct aisle access. The 2 worst things about flying are surely if you're on the aisle, being disturbed by people wanting to get out if you're not on the aisle, having to disturb people when you want to get out. Not so bad if you know the person sitting next to you, but what if you're by the window and they are in 'lie flat' mode. Just climb over them?
