Experiencing the feeling of royalty with business tickets is great, but the prices for these tickets are also “huge”.
From adding extra legroom to enjoying meals prepared by Michelin-starred chefs, business class tickets have come a long way.
However, the three words “business class” always come with a sky-high price, but unless you have accumulated a huge flight distance, buying this ticket to travel is still a dream of many young people. .
So what makes these tickets so expensive and why are people willing to pay for them?

We often hear complaints about bad airplane food. However that certainly does not happen when you travel with a business ticket. The menu of this ticket class in some airlines is even prepared by Michelin-starred chefs.
After hearty meals, sleep is also taken care of very carefully, from the bed and pillows, there is certainly nothing to complain about. You may even be provided with pajamas to change into comfortably.
Some of the other “perks” of business class can be mentioned as private TV, Wifi, expensive gift bags and even an in-flight bathroom.

Luxury not only in the air but also on the ground. Indeed, business class passengers will have their own waiting area at the airport.
Here, they will experience private services such as snacks, drinks or … bathroom before and after the flight. Some airlines even offer door-to-door pick-up services with luxury cars such as Porsche or Mercedes…
On long-haul flights, the business class seats take up 4-6 times the space of the regular seats. So don’t be surprised why there are times when business class fares are also 4-6 times more expensive.

It’s just a simple comparison that’s easy to understand. We haven’t even talked about the “super luxury” business tickets, which are reserved for a separate room with a living room, double bed and bathroom right on the plane like Etihad’s.
The one-way fare from New York to Abu Dhabi for this “flying room” is ,000 (about 729 million VND).
The three words business class in itself gives passengers a special feeling.
Believe it or not, but the three words business class in itself gives passengers a special and luxurious feeling.
No matter where that ticket comes from, you will still feel the difference in yourself. And the sky-high price tag also ensures this feeling.
These expensive tickets are really only for those who… have money.
Suppose you are a person who can earn ,000 (about 410 million VND)/week while you only travel/business a few times a year, which experience will you choose? A ,000 flight (about 40 million VND) with obvious inconveniences and an ,000 flight (about 160 million VND) with completely different experiences?
There are many successful entrepreneurs who are willing to pay an extra cost to have a comfortable time on the plane.
The fact that air tickets have many different prices is to allow passengers to choose the type of service they want.
And the truth is that many wealthy families or successful entrepreneurs are willing to pay an extra cost to have a comfortable rest or simply a private space to work on the flight. .
However, there are also cases where those passengers are not paying for the flights but the company they are working for.
Even this number sometimes accounts for a large percentage. Some companies enter into contracts with airlines to have more reasonable rates for employees when traveling on business.
