Next round i think we should have a way that you can have different prices for different seats e.g Economy $70, First $100, Buisness $120

From where Manchester to Old Trafford

[fatcow]

oh..how come?
Economy $70
Business $120
First Class $100??
first class is cheaper than business class.....

There may be some new functions on "service" in the next version......

Isn't First Class usually cheaper than Businesss class? I know that Business class is up front, then First then Economy is at the back usually. Personally, I think it might be a great idea, but it might be a bit too complicated for Miller to write the script and so on, but who knows, maybe he might put it in.

I don't know where you normally fly to, but FIRST CLASS IS ALWAYS FIRST! Business class is something in between, something for business travellers that don't want to go economy, but can't afford first class.

[mufc4evr]

thnx for the correction

[frankly.de]

Although from what I gather domestic US doesn't have business but only first. But that first would elsewhere be called business (or maybe just premium economy?)....

[Africaspotter]

Same in Europe, where most domestic routes only have economy and business class. The expense for installing a first class would be too high compared to the income. There would be just 2 seats or so in those smaller regional planes. That is why you often have an upgraded version of economy, with more freedom for your legs and better service, operated as business.

Miller did say that the new lf script which is been coded will allow for different prices for each class an airline has. Of course, this depends if it can fully work and not lead to any problems.

But it is one of the features i think people do expect in the future.

Havn't flown in 12 years (no reason to, my parents refuse to fly). But I do keep check of the industry very often, and I notice that it usually goes Business, First, Economy on most airlines. Though some airlines, such as LOT don't have a first class but just Business and First. Though Many airlines are naming the classes with different names.

????
Most airline i see in Asia is - first class is always first..
business is second...economic is last..
in most regional flights, airlines dont have first class, but only business class and economic class. But sometimes we can see HKG-TPE (1 hour 20 mins) do have first class..

You are completely totally wrong on this. You cannot name an airline that puts business class in front of First. EVERYONE knows that First Class is as good as it gets and everything is down hill from there. I am very confused when you say that you have not been on a plane for 12 years because your parents wont fly. How old are you? If you remember a flight that you took 12 years ago than that tells me that you should be old enough where you don't need mommy and daddy to hold you hand. The plane wont fall out of the sky, go ahead and get on like millions of people do safely everyday......

DUDE! Take a chill pill and stop this insulting way of saying "you took 12 years ago than that tells me that you should be old enough where you don't need mommy and daddy to hold you hand". At least get to know the person better before you make such flamebait comments. Since this forum dosn't display ages, like most forums, I think I can justify what you are saying though. I havn't been on a plane since I was five or six. I'm eighteen (Just turned 18 in August) now, but I check aviation sites like A.net pretty much everyday. Anyways, guess its one thing I always got backwards was that Biz Class was the Highest and First Class... Somehow my mom convinced me years ago it was the other way (C,F,Y), and I never really went back to check on it until now. I check it up on Wikipedia, and it reflects what everyone's been saying.
Sorry for the confusion, and please UAL747DEN, think about what you're posting before you start to spout out comments that might be flamebait.

~EDIT~
Earlier in this post, I said that the forum dosn't display age. I was wrong, all you have to do is click on "View Public Profile." And it should be on the bottom left box.

Usually Economy is referred to as Cattle Class...

[EXTspotter]

I never been on a schedualled full-service airline. A 763/er with 2-4-2 and 30" pitch is chicken class (I hate you Airtours international!)

EXT: Look at the skies and birdpoo shall rain down.

Usually Economy is referred to as Cattle Class...

Or self loading cargo

[gizgiz]

Nah, I always learned it as Pampered Class (First), Champagne Class (Business) and Sardine Class (Economy)

BTW, I've never heard of an airline putting business prices higher than first ...

Hahaha I like that. In fact, some low cost airlines only have 'racing cattle class' on small planes like B737, B717, A320 etc. as the seats number are not fixed. Passengers have to race if they want the best seat for themselves
