I have never travelled in business class on a long distance flight. Booked business class for the first time for my aged parents for travel between India and Seattle. my mom had some health issues and wanted her to travel comfortably. $7000 for return tickets. Felt little pinch on pockets but I used 220k points from Chase rewards to reduce ticket cost by 3K. Now I need to do the same for in-laws :) since my mother in law has some health issue, I would like to book her in business. Any ideas tips to get good deals on business class? Would it look bad if I just book one person in business class and ask my father & father in law to travel economy as they are healthy? They travel every year, so just thinking of setting expectations. TC (525K + 495k for spouse).
The in laws can fly premium economy
At 1m tc, the tickets shud be like loose change.
No fuck. It never it. Look me half of it is taxes. To the Trump. Even if they might not get to vote, they gotta pay the shitty tax. And the cost of living for a good Damn family. Sales tax is super high. And if you want to protect yourself from recession and want to save up, even 5 million is savings is not enough. They gotta save for their kids education loans, their future health problems, retirement savings, his parents and in-laws , health insurance and out of pocket. And good forbid vacation once a year. That comp might look heavty but that still gotta save just like anybody else. Don't be a s**. Give legitimate answers to his questions or gfys.
Wtf 1m TC can afford business class. Dont give us your 'ohhh tax is high' BS
Your total TC is like 1M! Aren’t these just pocket change?
No you piece of shit.
Jesus christ. 1M. After tax that’s still 500k a year! Wow.
Is there a cruise from India to Seattle? Book a top-deck suite for them? They would feel pampered and spend less time at your home. I would guess cruise takes at least 2 weeks ;)
You are hired
On a serious note if you really want a deal, put alert on Google flights and if you are ok with an additional stop, the rates are much lower. I've seen business class fares from India to US roundtrip for around 4k onwards..
Always book flights with miles. Transfer those chase ur points to airline miles then redeem. 220k points is 220,000 miles which can have a redemption on premium class of up to $37,000 or up to $6,600 in economy.
If own parents and in-laws are treated differently - big issue. If both dads are treated differently - no in-law inequality. Might as well book first class, you’re already spending $7,000, first class shouldn’t be too much different. And you guys are making 1M TC.
Yes, it will be weird to make one person travel business and other economy. It's a long journey, a good company will go a long way in making them comfortable and not get bored to death.
