business class
Premium flight seating
Business class is a tier of airline seating between first class and economy, offering wider seats, more legroom, and better service on long-haul flights: We upgraded to business class for the twelve-hour flight.
The term extends to similar premium tiers in trains and other services.
As an adjective, it describes amenities or pricing at this level: business-class tickets, business-class lounge.
