All there is to know about US Business Class…

In recent years airlines have put great effort in re-appraising the business class products by enhancing the seats, services, and amenities of the cabin. Should money not be of any concern, privacy and ultimate luxury being a must, first class is for you. However, business class will provide a similar travel experience, but with a more affordable price tag.
