    It's a different experience all together! The mco flight is full of kids, so being up front, your almost guaranteed a quite flight as the chances of having a child up there are slim.

    Glass of champers on arrival, seats recline into beds for a snooze.. No brainer!

    My dad travels this route 3 times a year to visit my Sister....... well worth the money and he would not consider going down the back...He is 89. and loves it.

    Splashed out a couple of years ago on business class on a trip to New York. Flights were cheaper than normal at the time. Surprised the Mother and brought her on a weekend shopping trip before Christmas. She had never been to the States before and is a nervous flyer. All I can say is that it's how flying used to be. No screaming kids, reclining bed with plenty of space. Slept nearly the entire flight home. Champangne and a tray of hot finger food on boarding. A menu to pick your choice of food. Food if I can remember was nice considering it's airline food. As much drink as you want. If only I could afford to travel this way all of the time. If I remember correctly you had a choice of four or five main courses ranging from steak to duck. If you want to treat yourself I would recommend it. It's a totally different experience to what you get flying these days.

    OP, It depends on what you consider value for money. If you pay $2000 for the ticket one way then OK it might be worth it for you but not for me.

    I travel quiet a lot, both long and short haul and I would never pay for business class if I am paying for my own ticket, I'm normally travelling for work so the company pays. I have paid for an upgrade a few times when they are very cheap or if I can use points. It works out about 50/50 these days between flights in business and economy.

    If you have the cash and don't mind spending it then do it once at least, if not that extra $1000 will go a long way in Orlando.
