I visited more than 35 American states and 42 countries on four continents.
Since I have such an intense affinity for global trips, I have already had to find ways to maintain the costs low enough for me to continue to my next adventure.
I generally reserve theft in economics even if I have always had trouble with legs of the legs as a larger woman – my general desire to travel replaced concerns about short -term comfort.
However, something changed last fall when I (somewhat impulsively) improved my long-haul flight from Zurich to Seoul in business class.
It was supposed to be a unique thing, but it changed the way I want to live on trips. I had three long-haul flights since that day “fateful” in September … and I went to business class each time.
I found that I am easy for me to justify bombing additional funds for upgrades

In business class, I am able to enjoy my long-haul as well as my destination. The largest seats with many rooms for the legs and restaurants in the air and fluid libations have been revealing.
The improved seat gives me room to stretch my legs and have enough space to be comfortable and productive when I have work to do too.
Although the overall experience of business class is worth it, I find the most value in what I feel when arriving.
The lies to 180 degrees give me the opportunity to sleep (even if I can only manage a few hours). This is particularly great on long and night flights which generally have arrivals in the morning or the day.
By heading to my next destination, one of the biggest gifts I can offer myself is the best opportunity to rest, relax and recharge during a flight. The business class gives me the comfort of doing exactly that.
Now that I have felt the advantages of business class, it is difficult to want to travel differently

The typical cost of business class upgrades can range from a few hundred dollars to thousands (unless you use loyalty or credit card points) and may not be possible for each budget.
Personally, I break down the cost of an upgrade by examining the flight time. Thus, for example, if the flight is 12 hours and the upgrade costs $ 1,000, or about $ 83 an hour. For me, this cost is worth it.
Although it took me 37 years to try business class, I don’t know if I can travel again in the economy, especially not for long trips.
To move forward, for any flight of more than nine or 10 hours, I will try to buy an upgrade.
