Which Is the Soo CR Splurge For Family: Intl Biz Class, Or Super Luxe Hotel?
Poast new message in this thread
Date: September 18th, 2023 4:39 PM Author: Fragrant Lavender Menage lets say intl biz is $3k/tic and coach is $1k/tic, which means it's an extra $8k for intl biz
and lets say a super-luxe hotel is $2500/n versus the ordinary very nice 5* is $500/n... and you're going for a week to two different places, and you'll splurge 4 nights on the super-luxe hotel in one city and stay 3 nights at the regular $500 5* in the other city... which means you're paying an extra $8k for the hotel splurge.
which is the CR splurge, assuming you can only afford one or the other?
i think it's def the intl biz. the super-luxe splurge isnt worth it and kids will have the time of their lives at the $500 hotel, and kids will really remember the intl biz experience with lounges and fancy seats and shit. |

Date: September 18th, 2023 4:41 PM Author: vibrant cruise ship You may wanna get a second job bartending if you can only afford one, but supposing this is purely hypothetical and you aren’t that low income I’d choose hotel. 4 nights of luxury versus 10 hours or so (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5408152&forum_id=2#46812972) |
|
Date: September 18th, 2023 4:43 PM Author: Fragrant Lavender Menage the counterarg is that it's 10 hrs of absolute hell in coach vs 4 nights still in a nice 5* hotel...
i'm not sure of the marginal value of a nice 5* @ $500 vs an ultra-luxe $2500 place, esp for kids. |
|
Date: September 18th, 2023 8:10 PM Author: beady-eyed stead dog poop to me this is obviously the right answer, on a $ per time basis the difference is massive, intl biz is a shockingly poor use of money, just get exit row seats in coach also, taking kids into biz and where they’ll cry and scream all flight, I feel for the other pax |
|
Date: September 18th, 2023 8:17 PM Author: Fragrant Lavender Menage the problem w/ all you doing this $/time analysis is it seems unfounded to assume you get the same marginal pleasure per hour from each one.
just do exit rows in coach is perhaps fighting the hypo... plus kids < 18 cant even sit in exit rows. and even if they can, lets assume they're unavailable |

Date: September 18th, 2023 5:14 PM Author: Diverse Yellow Parlour We think the same way. You have to be a real faggot if you care about whether your hotel experience is 4-star or 5-star unless you're traveling to a destination specifically to hide out at the hotel for the week (which, to be fair, I sometimes do e.g., in the Caribbean or if the hotel is a destination unto itself like the Breakers). But generally the hotel should be a base from which you go and do fun shit not the purpose of the trip. On the other hand upgrading from coach to business on an international trip makes a huge difference. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5408152&forum_id=2#46813177) |
