Domestic Business Class - is it worth it?
As a member of the Virgin Australia Velocity program, I often get invitations in my inbox to 'upgrade' my flights to Business Class. I had just assumed that it wasn't worth the dosh for short flights. This Easter, my curiosity got the better of me, and I decided to see for myself if it were any different to economy.
A business class flight from Sydney to Hobart will cost you about $250 on top of your regular fare. Here's what that extra loot will get you;
* a very comfy leather seat with lots of leg room
* unlimited drinks in proper glass cups
* a very nice meal designed by a celebrity chef
* proper cutlery
* a tray table that isn't on the back of someone's seat
* addressed by your name by the flight staff
* priority boarding
And the piece de resistance...
* a chocolate bunny
Seriously, though- if you hate flying and can afford to upgrade, do it. Personally, I'd rather spend that extra money on something else!
