[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m am so lol, but that is such a true description of the parade of horribles in economy. And the reason why I sometimes will pay for first or business even though my income and net worth are less than those above. And why it’s completely silly to have an income of seven figures and be flying overseas in economy. [/quote]

Agreed- the alleged coach/economy plus- flying 1.1 million HHI poster above is either a troll or a fool[/quote]

We had income of $850K and NW of $12M+ and typically flew economy plus and hoped for upgrades.  50% of that goes to taxes (it's W2 income, not much other choice). Asia trips are always business, but Europe is a 6-8 hour flight and not worth extra $4-5K for each of us.  If we could get it for $1K we paid for upgrade.

Now that we are similar income and NW over $30M, we pay for business for us.  The kids (teens and college) go in economy plus or premium select.  Sure we could pay for them to be in business, but I was over 45 before we started doing that.  I was 30 before I went to Europe---they will be find in EP/PS and enjoy their multiple trips to Europe before they are 20.
