[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, the strategic way to handle this is to initially tell them that you don't want to go because you're worried about premature birth while overseas. Also, you'll need to talk to your doctor about whether you'll be able to travel, so you're not sure yet if you can even commit to it. At this point, they will either assign someone else to go or they will encourage you to talk to the doctor because they REALLY NEED you to go to Europe. If the latter option arises, that's when you ask for business class. You create a situation where you are doing them a favor (going on international travel in 3rd trimester against your initial wishes) and in return they feel obligated to do you a favor (pay for the business class roundtrip ticket). [/quote] This[/quote] I agree, although it only works if you don't really care about going on the trip[/quote]
