Business Class travel tips

Confirm the seat, not just the cabin

Business Class products differ widely by aircraft. Ask our advisors which seat type operates your specific flight before you commit.

Use the lounge on both ends

A Business Class ticket from San Francisco normally includes lounge access before departure and, on many carriers, an arrivals lounge in London. Ask which lounges apply to your booking.

Check the fare rules before you book

Premium fares vary in how changes and refunds are handled. Our advisors will walk you through the exact conditions of the fare you are considering.

Arrive with time to enjoy it

Priority check-in and security cut queue time, but arriving a little earlier lets you make use of the lounge rather than rushing to the gate.
