    I can’t imagine having so much money that I could fly first or business class. My last vacation cost 2500€ in economy for 3 people. Business would have been about 10000€ more. I’d have to save for months/years and live a worse life to save the money. Only for one day without discomfort.

    Sometimes I feel like a really poor person. But I’m pretty well of if I look at the national average.

      Yeah on our first trip after COVID I was like "we haven’t gone anywhere in a couple years, maybe I could spring for first class with my credit card points. NOPE

      First class is on average 6x more. I thought it would be like double.

      I’ve flown business class once for work when I was bumped up, but only for a 1 hour flight lol 😭

        I just checked an Emirates flight to Singapore. Economy 1k, business 2.5k, first 8.5k.

        People travelling in first are probably jealous of the people in private jets. And the people in private jets wonder how they could afford a bigger jet. As dad said: you can spend every billion only once.
