If you have ever flown overseas or even a long distance, domestic flight, you will know how cramped an economic seat can get. So why not purchase business class tickets?
Now I know the first thing that every one things when they hear business class tickets is price.
And to be honest, there is quite a price difference between the the various ticket types. Let’s take the following flight for example:
Sydney To Perth – 28th February, 2010 (8:10am)
Red E-Deal – $229
Super Saver Ticket – $420
Flexi Saver Ticket – $751
Full Flexible Ticket – $937
Business Class Tickets – $1,129
So as you can see, the business class tickets are close to 5 times the price of a Red E-Deal ticket, but then again they are only a little bit more expensive than a full flexible ticket.
It really does come down to what you require (and desire) from your travel. The reason a lot of businesses purchase business class tickets for their staff is because their employees could be negotiating million dollar contracts (which could result in a lot of profits for their business) so what is $1,129 compared to the potential profits?
The Benefits Of Business Class Tickets Are
- Access to the Business Class lounge
- Priority check-in
- Priority checked baggage handling
- Better Meals
- More Space
In other words, the main benefits is time and comfort, which is extremely important as you want your employees to stay as relaxed as possible to make sure they win that big contract!
As you can see, the benefits of business class tickets can be worth the additional money – but if you are only doing short domestic travel – it probably isn’t worth it!
