first class travel

Flying in front

First class travel is the most expensive and luxurious tier of passenger transportation, whether by air, rail, or sea.

Airlines offer first class passengers wider seats, better food, and more attentive service.

On trains, first class means roomier compartments and quieter cars.

We splurged on first class travel for our honeymoon.

The term extends metaphorically to any premium experience.
