A traveler has flown long-haul business class with six airlines and reports varied experiences. Delta One and Fiji Airways delivered exceptional service and impressed the traveler most. British Airways and Virgin Atlantic provided positive, though less standout, business-class experiences. The traveler spent most of life in economy and found returning to economy difficult after tasting business class. Recent trips featured lie-flat seats across six carriers, enabled by work travel, airline loyalty, and credit-card points. Business class consistently outperformed coach, but quality varied across airlines, producing clear top picks.
I've flown business class on long-haul flights with six airlines, and some really stood out to me. My flights in Delta One and Fiji Airways' business class have blown me away. I've also had good experiences with British Airways and Virgin Atlantic. For most of my life, I sat in the back of the plane and never really knew what I was missing. Maybe things were better that way because
once I got a taste of business class, it's been hard to go back to economy. In more recent years, I've gotten a chance to take long-haul flights in lie-flat seats in business class on six different carriers around the world - thanks to a combination of work travel, airline loyalty, and credit-card points. Though it's always better than coach, not every business-class experience is created equal.
