Europe has some summer holiday destinations like Spain, Italy and Greece and others that are popular with people in the summer. Not only can you enjoy the fantastic destinations but you can enjoy the journey too. If you are paying for upgraded flights then you want to make the most of your business class experience so here are a few tips to maximise your business class flight.
Book the included chauffeur service
Arrive in style and luxury with the chauffeur service that business class flight booking includes. Book your car in advance and alleviate the worry and hassle of getting to the airport on time. You are notified when your car arrives and everything is taken care of.
Make the most of the business class lounge
When you arrive at the airport direct yourself straight to your airlines business class lounge. Here you will enjoy complimentary food and drinks in a comfortable and peaceful environment. Granted some airlines provide better facilities than others but whoever you are flying with, you’ll enjoy making use of the business class lounge.
Enjoy early priority boarding
At airports, waiting can be the most annoying part of the whole experience. Standing in line for passport control, security, and boarding can get quite tedious. Well if you book business class you can take advantage of priority boarding. So, you can be settled in your seat, enjoying a drink whilst everyone else is still in the queue.
Use the amenities and services available
Unlimited food and drinks, better pillows, totally reclining seats and attention to detail from the flight attendants. You are treated very well whilst flying business class, and you should expect this after paying the premium price. Entertainment options and electronic charging points are also a perk, so you will be comfortable and interested during the whole flight.
Priority security and immigration lines
If you want to get through immigration and security quickly and without fuss then make the most of business class priority. Avoid the long queues at some airports and join the business class priority queue or show your pass to skip the line. Especially helpful if you are in a hurry or you just want to get to your destination and relax as soon as possible.
The best European airport lounges
If you are travelling to Europe this summer you’ll want to know what lounge you can use when you arrive at the airport. Here are a few of the top airport lounges in Europe.
Air France La Premiere Lounge in Paris Charles De Gaulle
A romantic lounge come champagne bar where the best perk is getting a private car transfer directly to the plane and introduced to the crew.
Virgin Atlantic in London Heathrow
An extremely luxurious experience where the Upper-Class Wing is almost a private terminal in LHR. A Virgin member of staff will give you your boarding pass, take your bags straight through private security and into the clubhouse.
Priority pass in Barcelona airport
If you have a priority frequent flyer pass or are travelling first or business class you will have access to a range of lounges depending on your airline in BCN. This includes the Vip lounge Pau Casals which received a Global Lounge of the Year Award in 2013.
Are you flying business class this summer?
A summer holiday in Europe sounds fantastic and wheat better way to start your vacation than flying in luxury? Booking a business class flight will mean you can take advantage of all the things you expect from a luxury holiday from the minute you arrive at the airport. Sit back relax and enjoy.

August 9, 2019 at 5:02 amJust wondering. Is it ok to taste all the meal offered during the flight if you’re flying in a business class?
