After Wu Yue and Ding Gan boarded the plane, they asked the accompanying team members to put away their carry-on luggage, and then found their respective seats and sat down.
It was the first time for Pan Ying, the captain of FV Club, to fly on a plane. After sitting down in his seat, he seemed a little at a loss.
"Are the seats on the plane so spacious? I thought they were similar to those on the high-speed rail." Pan Ying muttered softly.
Wu Yue chuckled: "You wouldn't say this if you were flying in economy class. Of course, there are more spacious first-class cabins, but there are not enough seats in the first-class cabin on the plane. Besides, we shouldn't be too extravagant. It was a waste, so I booked business class. ”
First class cabins are similar to boxes. A first class box occupies the same space as six economy class seats, and the front-to-back distance is more than two meters. You can roll around and sleep.
But there were not enough first-class seats for 30 people. Wu Yue did not want to have differential treatment and felt that it should not be too extravagant and wasteful, so he did not choose.
Business class is only slightly worse than first class, but the difference is not big.
Although there is no independent box, the business class has a semi-independent space structure. It can be regarded as small compartments with a certain degree of coverage, but unlike first class, the entire box can be used completely and fully. The outside world is closed.
However, the business class seats are spacious, with a huge table next to them, a large screen in front, and various interface sockets next to them. The seats can also be folded 180 degrees, so the experience It's more than one level better than economy class.
Everyone sat down one after another. The business class compartments separated everyone, which made many contestants who were flying for the first time a little panic.
Pan Ying said: "Manager Lu, please tell me if there are any precautions? What can and cannot be used with these things?"
Manager Lu smiled: "I want to Just order whatever you want, and if you don’t understand anything, just ask the flight attendant. It’s your first time flying first class. Flight attendants are professional people and won’t laugh at you.”
Voice. We had just landed and before the plane even took off, the stewardess had already come to greet us and provide us with drinks, hot towels and various snacks.
The flight attendant squatted next to the seat, first handed over a warm wet towel to wipe her hands and face, and then handed over a glass of lychee coconut milk, then handed over the menu, and specifically told her if there was anything special about her diet. Any request can be made.
Pan Ying flipped through the menu, feeling a little dazzled.
Before, he thought that airplane meals were just standard lunch boxes, but when he saw this menu, he realized that what kind of lunch boxes were these? There were so many varieties!
There are appetizers, including prawns, diced oranges, seasonal vegetable salads, etc.;
There are selected main courses, including pan-fried steak with grilled onions, asparagus, red-skinned baby potatoes, and red wine. Sauce, or confit black cod with cherry tomatoes, baked potatoes, black olives;
There are cheese, fruits and desserts, as well as seafood udon noodles, chicken cheese sandwiches, Chinese dim sum, etc.;
In additionThere is also a breakfast menu, including scrambled eggs with dried radish, dried beans with mushrooms, soy milk fried dough sticks, fried noodles with chicken and mushrooms, bacon, pork sausage, pancakes and more.
The most amazing thing is that Pan Ying also saw instant noodles on the menu. Maybe some passengers just like this.
Of course, in addition to these foods, there are also various types of wine, including wine, champagne, etc.
In short, this menu has made Pan Ying feel a little dazzled and she doesn’t know what to order.
But there is no rush, he still has a long time to think about it before the plane takes off.
After the plane took off, Pan Ying realized the benefits of business class more deeply.
You can freely choose whether to rest or eat first. If you rest first, you can lie down and sleep directly. After you wake up, the flight attendant will ask if you want to provide meals; if you choose to eat first, you will Serve appetizers, aperitifs, appetizers, main dishes, cakes, ice cream, etc. in order. If you eat slowly, it is normal to eat for two or three hours.
When you are tired from eating, you can just lie down and sleep.
Different from economy class, business class seats can be reclined 180 degrees and will be provided with quilts, pillows, pajamas, slippers, overnight bags, etc. The resting experience is completely different.
After going to the bathroom and changing into pajamas, pajamas, pants and slippers, Pan Ying felt much more comfortable. Although she was high in the sky, it was not much different from the sofa at home.
The toothbrushes, toothpaste, hand cream and other toiletries in the overnight bag are all famous brands, including the overnight bag, which are also very exquisite and high-quality. Pan Ying does not know that the outside of such a small bag It costs thousands of dollars to sell alone.
In addition, some supporting facilities are completely different from those in economy class.
The seat can not only be folded completely flat, but also comes standard with an adjustable cushion inflation system, which can automatically adjust within a certain range according to the passenger's body shape to the most comfortable sitting position;
< p>Headphones are advanced head-mounted noise-cancelling headphones. Once you put them on, you can immediately avoid being disturbed by the roar of aircraft engines;The seat belt is a thickened version of the leather seat belt with padding. It is thicker and has airbags, which will make it safer;
The screen directly opposite will be several times larger than the one in economy class. There is a special remote control that can realize real-time calls with other business class passengers.
Pan Ying was not sleepy at all, so after the flight attendant enthusiastically asked, she started ordering food frantically.
When Pan Ying and the others won the qualifying championship, Wu Yue also invited them to eat delicious food in a shopping mall near the venue. It was a Western restaurant with an average price of 400 per person.
As for the food in the business class on the plane, whether it is the presentation or the taste, it is difficult for Pan Ying to think of it as airplane food. Instead, she feels that it is similar to the food she had eaten in a Western restaurant before. level.
Pan Ying took two bites of food and tasted two sips of red wine. She felt relaxed and even wanted to stretch.
“OriginalIs it so comfortable to fly? "
"In these thirteen hours, I can eat whenever I want, sleep whenever I want, and watch movies whenever I want. I'm not tired at all! ”
……
On the other side, economy class.
Zhao Xuming has folded his seat, but the economy class seat can only be moved to about 120 degrees. Even if I wear a U-shaped pillow, I still feel uncomfortable.
After the plane took off, the stewardess had already started to distribute the flight meals, but there were only two kinds of lunch boxes to choose from, and no matter which one I chose, it would not be good. Eat.
The narrow seats and rickety small tables make eating not so comfortable, and you have to be careful to avoid spilling the lunch or soup on your lap.
< p>As for pajamas, slippers, toiletry bags, etc., of course there are none.The only good news is that everyone is sitting together, so you don’t have to worry about your neighbor weighing 200 pounds. The fat man squeezed himself into no private space.
But even so, the narrow space of the economy class still made Zhao Xuming feel very cramped and regretted that he should not have done this. The players of the two clubs share the joys and sorrows, so they should book themselves a business class ticket!
I can only say that I didn’t think so much when I booked the flight. I thought that I would just make do with it and get to Los Angeles. Special treatment is always easy to talk about.
But when he saw that the thirty or so people in the FV Club were all going to take the business class, Zhao Xuming himself could only squeeze in the economy class. < /p>
A flight attendant happened to be passing by, and Zhao Xuming hurriedly asked: "Can I apply for an upgrade now? "
With a professional and polite smile on her face, the flight attendant replied: "Sorry sir, both the first class and business class cabins on this flight are full and there are no seats available. "
Zhao Xuming was stunned for a moment: "No place? "
The flight attendant smiled and nodded: "Yes, I'm very sorry. ”
Zhao Xuming was a little surprised. Logically speaking, although there are few first-class and business-class seats, they are very expensive and there are often empty seats. You can just pay to upgrade.
< p>But FV Club has booked 30 business class seats this time, and this is a popular flight to Los Angeles, so there is no room for upgrade!In other words, Zhao Xuming He had no choice but to squeeze in the economy class for more than ten hours to get to Los Angeles before he could have a good rest.
Zhao Xuming’s mouth twitched slightly and he forced a smile: “Okay, thank you. ”
His eyes reluctantly crossed the corridor and looked at the business class in front. As a result, he happened to see a stewardess with a smile and "swipe and pull" the door that separated the business class and economy class. Curtain.
Zhao Xuming: "..."
He suddenly had an ominous feeling that this trip to Los Angeles would not go well...
