Trashy!

I think maybe some people here think business class is some kind of indication of status and worth. It is not. It is a more comfortable and spacious seat on public transport that comes with an associated higher cost than the smaller seat. For longer flights that I would want to sleep on, I may decide it’s worth spending more on the more comfortable seat to allow me to sleep. But my kids are able to sleep anywhere and when they’ve flown business, they don’t even bother making the seat lie flat. They don’t care where they sit or sleep so why pay more for them to have a bigger seat that they don’t care about? So in my family, if we are taking a long flight, we would discuss the seating options but the likelihood is that on a longer flight we’ll put the kids in premium economy and we’ll fly business because we are all fine with that! Nobody is “less than”, it’s just some are more bothered by being uncomfortable than others. [/quote] k[/quote]
