Disappointing photos show what flying first class is really like

  • Advertisements for first-class accommodations — and even our own imaginations — can look vastly different from the true experience.
  • Take a look at what the full experience of flying first-class — from check-in to the exclusive lounges to the seats and meals on the flights themselves — can really look like.

Flying first-class can sometimes feel like an unattainable luxury.

And if you've ever had to pass by those lucky few first-class passengers on your way to coach, you probably recognize those feelings of curiosity and pangs of jealousy you get seeing them already seated in their wide, plush seats with extra legroom and a 15-inch TV.
