Hello.
I wanted some advice about a round the world business class air fare I have found on www.bestflights.com.au. I have called them to discuss availability and routes/airlines which is relfected in the info below.
The airfare is $7035 in total for the following route:
- SYD>JFK (via SFO) on United
- JFK>LHR (via ZCH) on Swiss
-ZCH>HKG on Swiss
-HKG>SYD on Virgin Atlantic
I have never flown with these aircraft apart from United in economy on this actual flight. I still consider the United economy flight to be one of my worst but perhaps business class is more palatable.
I am stillplanning my European itinerary so I can fly into/out of other cities but given these sectors are with Swiss it will always be via ZCH.
I am flying in Aug/Sep and wanted to know what your thoughts are about money spent vs. airlines used. Would you pay this? Or (looking into your crystal balls) do you think a better deal may arise? I've never bought an airfare like this, so have no point of comparison. I realise this is subjective but any insight you can offer is appreciated.
Thanks, pw.
