Currently business class for the flight I'm on is 60% more expensive than the first class ticket on the flight I want. I have no idea which of the flights was cheaper when I bought my ticket because I always buy the same flight regardless of price.

At some point someone just has to say - hmmmm..... seems we should break our rules here this once or even hmmmmm..... seems we should change our rules.

I can't wait until Jetblue installs their lie flats beds. I'm not sure if the grass is greener there but I'm certainly going to find out.
