The Business Class side, on the other hand, is quite full, about as full as the FL gets at peak times. It is not as cramped as the FL, and there still are a couple of workstations available, but one cannot expect to get a grouping of four chairs to oneself.
One of the times I was there-- it was downright rowdy on the F side. Very crowded w/ really loud, rude, drunk, card-playing arsehol€$ (in beautifully tailored suits.) I moved to the J-side to get away from the noise and rudeness.
