Moving into First Class



I have only had the opportunity to fly first when flying on business and someone else was paying. Having to pay for the pleasure ones self its a different thing. Being a lad from Yorkshire I have to question paying another £6000 for a trip of 24/25 hrs,  I think perhaps I would need more than a special plate of food from the stewardess.?
It is, if nothing else, an example of the extremes in our actual life style where a section of society would pay virtually anything to feel exclusive. In any human being, the ego is pampered as one feels the eyes of the crowd turn towards one as you arrive at the arrival desk of First Class.
The term its self says it all. You are "first", an example for others to follow and achieve. First, in it being affordable to you. First in the queue, ushered through formalities, to become first on board. And so it goes on. Brimming with self confidence, you look around and see the other Firsts, the other achievers and you begin to wonder what they do to have also achieved this high honour, this acknowledgement, this club. I think that's so and so from what's it called.    Champaign sir ?
