Normally I'm a cheap ass and just take economy. I don't hesitate to spend on great hotel rooms, limos, or general fun stuff to do (like McDonalds drive throughs) but I've always cheaped out on airfare mostly cause it usually costs (and I always check) about 3-4X more for first-class.

McDonalds dirve through rules! As far as first class I have only been there once and that was walking to my seat in the very last row of the plane. I suppose if you have the money to spend it would be nice however I prefer to save and sit with the common folk.

i only fly 1st class domestic. edmonton to calgary at least 10 times so far. i did edmonton to toronto once.
it's just such a crazy amount of money for long flights, that i won't do it. definitely a great way to travel though.

I'm not one to drive - but I've always kinda considered the cross over point where one needs to fly at about a 3-4 hour drive. Maybe I just like having my truck with me, I like being bigger than most anyone else on the road and renting a car is a pain in the ass.Originally posted by quiet

I can comfort myself knowing I paid $900 extra for 4 flights (layover in minnapolis) for some ass room, a little booze and a hot towel.Originally posted by EscortBiz
Well you do arrive before the guys in the back technically, so now you can justify it
$900/4 = $225 extra per flight. that's $100 per flight for ass room, $75 for a beer and $50 for a warm towel per flight. bargain don't you think?
and that's canadian dollars so it's about $600 US extra.
one hour to minnapolis and about 3 hours to vegas from there.This dog, is dog, a dog, good dog, way dog, to dog, keep dog, an dog, idiot dog, busy dog, for dog, 20 dog, seconds dog!

I racked up 350,000 miles in the air from 1999 to 2001, and once I hit Gold Medallion with Delta, I flew First Class for free consistently, and I hate flying coach now.
It sucks ass. First class is very relaxing, laid back, and you are waited on consistently.
The alcohol is free in 1st! Always a Plus!
Enjoy the First Class Flight.
I look forward to meeting everyone in Vegas!!

I flew first class from Atlanta to Hollywood during the Internext convention (Atlanta was a stopover). Anyways, Delta had this really good way to sell off first class fares, during the one hour stop over, first class tickets pricing was dropping by the minute as we got closer to take off time. Eventually there were only 2 seats left and it was $34 for the upgrade. I don't know why anybody else didn't take it but for $34, sure! I'll get enough liquor during the flight to justify the bump! It was the best flight of my life, but I usually won't bother flying first class, not worth the 3-4X upgrade fee.

Hey Sleazy - You can usually upgrade at the airport for pennies to First Class.
Here are some upgrades I've realized:
SF to Kauai - Domestic RT was $500 (Northwest), Upgrade to First Class at counter was $88 bucks one way.
SF to Honolulu - Domestic RT was $800 (United), Upgrade to First Class at counter was $125 bucks one way.
SF to NY - Domestic RT was $600 (United), Upgrade to First Class at counter was $66 bucks one way.
I shit you not.
If you book far in advance, and have a good travel agent, he or she will shop your airfare around and get you a great rate.
My Wife and I flew Round Trip on Virgin to London from SF, plus a limo, plus first class airfare from London to Rome and Athens (to and from) all for $10K. Retail was $26,000. It pays to have a great travel agent and some time.<a href="http://www.jupiterhosting.com"><img src="http://www.jupiterhosting.com/banners/55x55.jupiter.gif" alt="" border="0" align=""></a>Comment

Yes,
But I keep them, as I have family in Memphis, Tenn that I visit, and I just started my own biz (Non Adult) and I am meeting with some Casino's next month and a few other larger corporations as well, so the miles help out a lot.

So I take redeyes alot of the time. Also, it just happens that I prefer Vegas & Hawaii in the off seasons... and I always do working vacations in Vegas during the week so I can stay longer for the same $$

reno air was pretty cool about this. i dunno if they still do it.
when i was flying to the bay area once (from seattle) i had a seat way in the back. reno has this deal where, if there's room at the time of the flight, you pay $30 and you can get a first class seat.
that's the one and only time i've flown first class. oh, and i'm seriously cheap about hotels thanks to priceline.
(i pay less than 25% hotel list prices).
Comment

First class used to be worth it, but since last fall the asinine attitude of most flight crews on US airlines doesn't justify it. The ones that do serve food serve the crap they used to have in coach as well.
Just like my little Vegas hotel rant I have some airline preferences lol...
Continental is good in both coach and first -- so is Air Canada. USAirways used to be great, but I havent lived on the east coast in a long time so I dunno any more.
American sucks ass and I'd rather fly on sorry ass America Worst than take AA out of DFW (oh wait, did that today...)
KLM just plain blows, I don't care for them at all, I'd rather swim to Holland if that was the choice. I have heard horror stories about Northwest, but never needed to fly them.
Delta is still pretty cool, they put my kid in first class for one leg of a flight last month where he was traveling alone, so he really likes them.
Southwest, for flights of an hour and a half or less rock pretty much, unless it's Phoenix to Vegas on Friday afternoon when the drunks are on board... you get on the plane, find a fucking seat and then you go. Cheaply.
For long flights, first class is still the best - not for the amenities but for the legroom and the recline angle on the seats.
I want to take the Concorde to Europe, that is my idea of a fun flight. I also want to try Qantas and Virgin Atlantic since I've heard good things about both.
And the kicker, I finally get to book a flight to Vegas on National, home of the really cheap first class upgrades and they stop flying two days later lol ;)Comment
