There is nothing better than flying first class. Every kind of luxury that you can think of from champagne, Bulgari toilet kits, course meals to concierge for easy passage in check in counter is experienced by a first class flier. Today airlines are competing over creating a top class experience for passengers. They are striving to have that wow factor.
Singapore Airlines
One of the best first class airlines is Singapore airlines where fliers will be offered champagne and they are given sleep suits. They also have large bathrooms. The seats can be turned into beds with over-sized pillows.
Emirates are turning their first class into mini suites. Their airplanes have sliding doors so passengers are given privacy.
Cathay Pacific
For Cathay pacific, skillets and rice cookers are found on board so meals are made to order and very fresh. According to experts, these amenities will entice passengers to spend money for the hefty fares. Some airlines increased their tickets to as much as 16%. First class seats are being used as marketing tools rather than money makers. Most fliers are contented with business class and most first class passengers are upgrades especially for those who always fly.
Those who fly first class are often for leisure rather than business purposes. There are more than 30 airlines that offer first class amenities. This would include flat beds, small passenger crew ratio and the best meals. There are some airlines that make the airport experience better for passengers. They focus on making the ground experience better compared to flying.
Qatar Airways
Qatar airways give passengers access to separate terminals with marble floors and waterfalls. The lounge has a restaurant, a spa, a sauna and a Jacuzzi. The deluxe factor for fliers includes full size pillows, a mattress, a wool blanket, Bulgari toiletry kits and other amenities. It gives Qatar the distinction of being the best airline in the world.
