Panda01ParticipantIf airlines put actual business class on Europe flights, then keep business class. But if business class in Europe stays the same, then re-brand it as economy-plus. Pay a little bit more(maybe £10-30) and get what the airline still give you. This would boast the sale of business class.

SimonS1ParticipantI can’t see it can be made to work really. Sometimes a route may be 3 or 4 rows of CE, sometimes 10 or 12.
So do you go for a fixed business configuration (in which case you may have more seats than passengers of vice versa) or go for an all economy config (as with A320s) and charge a premium for people who want to use the lounge, priority boarding and other perks.

In addition, and as reported on BT today, BA are launching traditional english fish and chips on a number of routes.”As part of our enhanced CE service could customers please drop off their fish and chip wrappings at row 1 on exiting.

flydriveParticipantI just flew LGW-AMS-LCY this weekend and upgraded to Club Europe both ways for £50/segment, which effectively doubled the cost of my discounted economy ticket. Was it worth it? In my case, it was a cheap 80 tier points, I was one of two or three people in the front cabin (and economy was full in both other flights), I got reasonable food for a 45 minute flight (that I could have eaten in the lounge at LGW, but not in BA’s lounge in AMS), and a few glasses of champagne. Ok, maybe not worth an extra £100, but when I look at the overall cost of £200 return, I feel I got my money’s worth. Best of all, service both ways was excellent, and the food pretty decent. I was in row 1 on both flights and had good leg room, was first off the plane and through immigration both ways, and had no one remotely near me. A recipe for a good flight which I’d pay for again (and will, having recently bought upgrades on two other short haul flights. Would I pay the silly money they ask if you want to book CE from the outset? No way, but this is perfectly acceptable.
