Is it worth while to fly first class?
by

1 Answer

Answer :

depends on the time-limit of the flight. If its like a 2-3 hour light you are better off with economy class. The only benefits of first class is the food, the more luxurious chairs and in some cases a tv in front. But honestly you can survive without those perks and save alot of money.
