It didn’t quite work out as I’d planned… as you can see from the picture! I was very disappointed with the arrangement; with the only difference between first class and your average ticket was a little piece of white fabric on the head rest! But… that’s me all over. If there is an enhanced offer, then I’m there. I want it. Which also led me to agree to an upgraded “Elite” ticket for the Event Claire and I are attending next week, when I was called by their sales team with an offer this week!
