    Upgraded to business class on the way over. 80% off the price we saw when we booked economy in March.

      Wow! You are off to the Tuscan countryside and I just had the Zuppa Tuscano at Olive Garden. Totally similar days!

        Presuming @Horace didn't get on the wrong plane and flew to Italy... I saw this thread recently: https://www.reddit.com/r/howislivingthere/comments/1meskzv/how_is_living_in_tuscany_italy/

          Nice flight in business class on Lufthansa to Frankfurt. But man Frankfurt. Spend 2 hours on the plane at the gate.

          Education is extremely important.

              I sure am worried about Horace. He once said something critical of Trump, and I’ve seen a lot of stories about people critical of the President not being allowed back into the country.

                I agree that it is an act of pure defiant courage to leave the country and hope to be allowed back in, after what I’ve said about the tariffs.

                  Yes I was in Portugal for liberation day and didn’t dare say anything until I got home. Not so brave am I.

                  Thank you for your attention to this matter.

                    Yes, in a lot of cases Business Class gets sent ahead of the the other classes. 😂

                      We were in economy in the second leg of the trip, as they reminded us when we tried to use the business class lounge in Frankfurt. I tried the magic words, “but I’m white”, but they still wouldn’t let me in.

                        Reminds me of the John Cleese joke: so John went to Auschwitz and arrived at the gate slightly after the last entry time and they wouldn't let him in. He said, "But I'm a Jew!" and they opened the gates and let him in.

                            Next time try “My genes 😉 are blue”. That should do it.
