Unit 39 Traveling by Airplane
B : Airplane travelers can choose between three
kinds of tickets: first class, business class, and
economy class. Most people buy economy class
tickets. They are cheaper, so travelers can go to
more places more often. Business class is more
expensive, with good seats and good service.
First class is very expensive, but offers very
comfortable seats and excellent service.
In economy class, the seats are small and
close together. There is not much leg room. In
first class, the seats are huge and wider apart.
There is lots of room for passengers to stretch
their legs. Economy class passengers usually must
all watch the same movie. First class passengers
have their own TVs, and each person can watch
different movies. Economy class passengers eat
cheaper food. First class passengers are served
delicious, fresh food. It is difficult to sleep in
economy class because of the small seats and all
the noise. In first class, the large seats can be
pushed back to make a comfortable bed. There
is a curtain between sections, so it is nice and
quiet. Economy class is a good choice for short
flights within the same country. Business class or
first class is a good choice for business travelers
taking an international flight across an ocean.
These people often have to get off the plane and
go right to work. For them, it is important to
arrive fresh, rested, and ready for a full, exciting
day.
