Business Class Flights

It used to be when you flew for business reasons that your company would get you business class flights for your travels. This was because business class offered a bit more room so you could work while en route without the expense of first class. Business class flights also provide a few other extras that made travel easy for those who were in the skies quite a bit for work purposes, and flying that much in coach was more of a pain than anything else.
Today, the business class flights you used to see are slowly going away. More and more airlines are cutting out a lot of their business class flights and sticking with just coach and first class flights. A big reason for this is expense. It is much cheaper to buy new planes with just two classes, and this is keeping the business class flights you used to use down in number to the point where you may not find them when you need them. A friend of mine works for an airline, and she agrees that while business class flights were helpful to the business passenger, they were indeed some of the first changes airlines started to make when money started to get tight. Airlines have to make changes to survive, and sadly, this was one that had to be made.
If you are still looking for business class flights, you can still find them if you look hard enough. They may not be as easy to find if you live in a smaller community, but they are out there somewhere. You may even have to take a coach connection to a larger city to get a business class flight to your final destination. If you can afford it, you may have to consider going first class from now on if you need the extra room to spread out and work while on a flight.
If you have no choice in the matter, you may find that your company begins to put you in coach no matter where you are going. This may become more and more common as time goes on, and this may change the way your company does business. Today there are ways around business travel, including videoconferencing and the like, but some know that this will never replace the need to have a person on the spot to get the job done.
