I find SK's configuration within europe funny. You have 3 classes, Business, Econonmy Extra, and Economy; but you get situations, like on my last flight to SVO, where all 3 classes are in front of the curtain (3 rows of biz, 3 rows of economy extra, 1 row of economy), and economy exclusively is behind it. IT's just funny to have 3 cabins so close to eachother.

Like other posters, I wouldn't consider Economy Plus to be a separate class of service.
The most classes I've ever seen are the four on BA long-haul: First, Club World, World Traveller Plus, and World Traveller.
Although WT+ and WT used to be virtually the same with the exception of the seat, BA have taken pains in recent years to differentiate the WT+ product by offering amenities such as glass glasses during meal service (although the food is still the same as WT).
It's generally acknowledged that WT+ isn't worth the money on its own (and isn't worth spending miles to upgrade into); most people buy WT+ tickets to be able to upgrade into CW.
