Great post from Shashank Nigam.I thought you'd love this:
I recently flew Singapore Airlines’ First Class for the first time. It was a trans-Pacific flight, so I got to enjoy it for the longest time possible (23hrs!). What an amazing experience it was. Aside from the product aspects, the service was unmatched. A level I had never experienced before, not on SIA’s economy class, and not on any other First Class.Shashank Nigam, I’d happily pay extra to an airline to treat me like a VIP. Would you?, Jan 2010
Did Nigam pay for the trip from his own pocket or did someone else?
@Anonymous - I used my miles to redeem the First Class ticket. - Nigam
@Anonymous I guess you have been answered.Shashank's post shows how legacy airlines can make flying on the economy a novelty by charging a small fee to treat a passenger like King!(Turkish Airlines)
I would definitely pay a little extra in the economy to be treated like a King!
