Round the World Ticket Business Class

I' ve just returned from a working journey that flies around the world: 18 trips in 40 of them. I' ve done business a few occasions and even flew first class, usually with a lot of pilots upgrading, but this has gone beyond them all. So I took a business class from Barcelona to Dubai over night and an accommodation from Dubai to Singapore.

Those trips were quite a lot more luxury than 95% of the hotel I spent the whole six week in. Only a few companies such as Emirates, Qatar, Etihad and Qantas are known for their services. Business Class has superseded First Class on some itineraries. However, this does not mean that it is less beautiful: on the contrary, Business Class becomes ever more beautiful with every new aircraft type.

On my first Emirates plane (with a brandnew Airbus A380), the Business Class seating was a soft toy armchair, flanked by things like a nutwood panel, my own mini bar with juices and waters, an iPad and a giant LCD screens. I' ve seen this shit in films, but it's quite neat when the stewardess knows your last name and is offering you a bottle of soap.

When I was about to go to sleep, the stewardess came to me and said, "Mr Gildner, would you like a toaster? Naturally I said yes, and she stretched a cushioned blanket over my reclining chair and gave me a genuine cushion (I put the polybags in which the cushion was packed on the floor....more on that later).

A few moments later I awoke and found the stewardess who served me my morning meal... a full one. I am sorry on the one side that I was so seriously ill during the most luxury ride of my life: on the other side you can think of yourself getting sweaty in the business, getting cramps and nausea, being between two foreigners?

Hurrying back to my chair, I pushed past a few Saudian petroleum millions and packed the cushion cover just in case. The next fifteen moments I spend in the midst of cabin crew, giving me everything from medicines, waters and heated hand tissues. The meal always comes on a Business Class plane. What does Business Class entail?

Business-class is a premier adventure, but it doesn't always have to be as expensive as you think. Basically, all bad connotations during long journeys are eliminated: there is a lot of space in all direction, good meals and beautiful bathroom. Even though the costs of each ticket vary depending on other considerations such as seasonal, length and weekday, a general principle is that business class seats are three to four fold the costs of an economy one.

A lot of aviation professionals recommend that you save your air mileage for seating up-grades. I have used several 500-mile American Airlines upgrade for this specific use. I think it's almost a wastage to either charge more or use your mileage to fly shorter local services (an hours is an hours, and I don't care where I'm sitting), but for night services with a big purple face it's definitely rewarding.

Where can I make a Business Class booking? One of the classic ways to make a Business Class booking is via one of the airline's scheduled flights: on-line, directly with the airline or through your tour operator. Prior to booking, please review your TripPlanner itinerary to get a fast estimation of the costs of a trip.

Business class flights will be 3-4x on avarage, which would mean the costs of a backrest in business class. It is also a good idea to speak with an airline ticket to get an overview of the expansion of your Business Class Upgrades throughout your journey around the world. On some occasions I have been told about business class travel that can actually be less expensive than having first class business class seating.

It' rarely, but it's a good idea to call a tour operator to find out how you can fly around the world in business class during your next outing.
