What's important for me is a good and comfortable sleep, good and attentive service, dine on demand and good food, a good IFE screen in that order (I don't tend to watch movies the entire trip).
WiFi is a bonus, I don't need to be on line 24/7. The A nd B concourse F lounges in DXB are nice. The C lounge is not worthy of an 'F' classification.
Chauffeur drive is really really nice (I will buy J Saver instead of J Special to get it as taxis on both sides of my most regular routing cost more than the fare difference). But of course CD is not a unique F benefit.
Whether the seat is grey or champagne is of no interest at all to me! (although the EasyJet colour scheme might be a bridge too far for me).
And the schedule is of importance to me.
But each his or her own of course!
Yep. And knowing what to expect pretty much every time. Very little meaningful variance in experience. Yes, QR, I’m looking at you.
