BEST AIRLINE SEAT CLASSES TO COMPARE WHILE FLIGHT ... - Raymart Aviation

Before making a local flight booking, it’s imperative to understand the differences between seat classes. Economy, business and first class seats are usually the different airline seat classes. It’s fair to say that most of us make do with economy class, also known as coach or standard. But for those looking to spice up their flight, there is always the option to upgrade to a more attractive cabin. 

To better understand the different class options while making flight booking, this article will shed light into what you get for your money. This is for typical economy, business and first class tickets. The first and most important thing to remember is that all seat specs depend on what airline you’re flying, what airplane you’re on and if you’re on a short or long-haul flight.

Economy class affords you a seat that takes you from point A to point B. There are few differences which are, leg room and seat width. However, pitch can also be in the width of 17-33 in and range of 28-34 in. These inches might not seem like much now but they end up being of importance when you’re in that seat for 6 hours or more.

It is also important to mention that there could be an in-between class on some flights. Not exactly premium, but one step above economy is what is known as ‘economy plus (or Economy Comfort among other names). This just means you are flying with the same service as economy, but you will be provided with few extra inches of legroom as well as seat recline.

It takes a little more than your cabin price to reserve these few select seats, but on a brighter side your seat will feel a bit more spacious.

Most people say if you fly business class once, you’ll never be satisfied in economy again. The luxuries of business over economy is always apparent. Business class is in fact becoming so convenient that many airlines have abandoned their first class seats altogether.

In summary; everything is better. From pre-flight drinks in real glasses, to meals served in real china with proper knives and forks, you’re given an exquisite treatment.

There’s a misconception behind this zenith of air travel. It is commonly said that first class is reserved for celebrities and the super-rich.  

Think all the advantages from business, added with a considerable layer of luxury. Aside from privacy and seat size, the noticeable difference is in the price. Seats cost up to five times as much as business class seats.

The standard of service cannot be compared to the first class, with highly trained crew members always there to anticipate and meet a passenger’s need. The standard of food is luxurious too, with many menus and dishes.
