[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our policy is business class for anything over 6 hours.

I’d totally ask. [/quote]This should be the policy for anyone. I would not travel for work in coach for a flight over 6 hours.[/quote]

Im pretty sure this is the fed rule but it may be just the level beyond coach- Idk if that is business but I do remember reading something about that in our contractor manual on travel. [/quote]

Federal employee?  Uh no.  That would be 14 hours but even with a longer than 14 hour trip you may have to follow individual agency guidance, which may deviate.[/quote]

Or if her doctor writes a note recommending business class to accommodate for any of a number of issues a pregnant woman might be at higher risk for including joint strain, blood clots, fainting due to low blood pressure, etc. My OB wrote a note for me and my agency happily accommodated. They have to give the same accommodations for pregnancy they would give for any other health concern. [/quote]

Is there a dr on staff in business class or something? What am I missing here? At risk for fainting. Oh lord[/quote]
