Default This is what flying should be like.

I know it's outrageously ostentatious but how great would it be if all flights could be like this:

For the money you'd struggle to charter a plane from Singapore to New York.

Most private jets can't do London to New York without a fuel stop. To do that journey you'd have to do 10+ fuel stops and it'd probably take you the best part of a week.

Different strokes for different folks I suppose.
I'm happy with a window seat in coach if I'm close enough to see the movie.
Although I must admit, leg room gets a bit cramped on an eight hour flight across the pond if you have your lid, mobile and sat nav in a helmet bag tucked under your seat. (or as far as it will go)

Iffin' I had that kind of money, first class would be fine with me.
(As long as its' a window seat)

Pay extra for a seat next to the overwing exits. Lots of legroom there.
