Well simply that's because your pricepoint where you think is buyup is worth it is lower than mine. I don't blindly purchase First or Business on shorthaul as I don't value the product as much (longhaul is a very different matter).

On shorthaul there are several factors I take into account; the price of economy versus First/Business, the product (some airlines use aircraft with international seating on certain domestic flights - nice!), even down to frequent flyer miles earned...To put into perspective on the $12k round the world trip I flew the frequent flyer miles earned from the trip were worth about $5000.

I had a friend at Uni who said even if Business and Economy were the same price on a longhaul she'd fly down the back because it was less pretentious!

Well my pricepoint is much lower because I don't, as I mentioned, make a ton of money. If I had the money to fly first or business class on a majority of flights, I would, but I do not.

And since when was flying first class the epitome of opulence? Your friend sucks at logic.

Same here! Think I'll watch that.

The coke cans in Dubai are bigger than usual

this economic crisis is hitting Dubai though, they are now starting to have a harder time borrowing money as they are not paying money back as much as they are borrowing. I would not doubt it if this never gets funded.
