flying in fantasy world (or flying business class)

Hi there! I am out of Calbayog. I am posting this while I'm in Manila. Just wanna share that "experience" I had when "by accident" I had to fly to Manila via PAL business class. I call that experience "flight in fantasy world". I had to rush to Imperial Manila for an urgent business, and thanks to the Tacloban fiesta, the only flight open was that of PAL and that's in business class. My sponsor had no choice but to go for it. So, what about that flight? Considering the way I flew or traveled the past so many months, it was sheer fantasy.

What separates business class from the rest? an ordinary curtain.

hmm, the welcome drink - a choice of mango juice or lemon water (both cold) served in real glass. And yes, they served ice.

I made sure I took a picture of the meal served before I finished it. A far cry from the usual plastic of chichiria and juice. But no apologies for the plastic cutlery.

. . . but the legroom is to die for

. . . and the hot towel was something most welcome

My finished meal which was kinda nice. But for the additional you have to pay for the ticket, no will do . . .

Back to the world of reality. Time to pick up my stuff at the carousel.

So, will I fly business class again? a big NO! For so short a span of time (spent on flying) and the amenities for a few thousand bucks extra, NO. As Mr. Gokongwei had it, the money can be spent in a fancy restaurant somewhere. And I agree with him.

But one thing though, it seems that PAL stews know how to smile warmly compared to the ones we get from budget airlines.
