Remember those days when you chose between coach and first class when you bought an airline ticket? Or, if you’re like most people, walked past first class on your way to the coach seat you purchased? The times are a-changing, with 3 different flavors of “coach” coming to an American Airlines plane near you later this year.
There was a time when you didn’t have to worry much about exactly what type of fare you were buying. Knowing that you were in coach or first class was enough. Not anymore
Cheaper is better, right? Not always, and now especially not in air travel. It used to be that virtually all coach tickets were the same. But now, consumers need to be very careful when they purchase a ticket, reading what fare they’re buying and what may (or may not) come with their ticket.
Today’s Best of the Rest includes cheap flights to LAX and SFO, a huge opportunity to redeem miles for business class to Australia, and the best AVGeek prank I’ve seen. You’ve gotta see it!
