Long-haul and short-haul business class aren’t the same

The length of your flight makes a big difference to the seat and service you get.

  • A lie-flat seat on most aircraft, often with direct aisle access
  • Airport lounge access before you fly
  • Multi-course dining and a wider drinks menu
  • Bedding and an amenity kit on many airlines
  • A higher checked baggage allowance

Short-haul business class

Shorter flights, such as routes within Europe

  • A standard-style seat, often with the middle seat kept free
  • Airport lounge access and priority boarding
  • A complimentary meal and drinks
  • A higher baggage allowance than economy

Seat types can vary by aircraft, even on the same route, so we confirm what’s on your flight before you book.

Common questions about business class flights

Find helpful answers about business class fares, seating, baggage and lounge access, plus when and how to book your flight from the UK.

What do you get with a business class ticket?
On long-haul flights, business class usually gets you a seat that turns into a flat bed, airport lounge access, priority check-in and boarding, restaurant-style meals and more checked baggage than economy. Short-haul business class is simpler. Expect a standard seat, often with the middle seat kept empty, plus lounge access and a meal. Your quote lists exactly what’s included.
Is business class worth the money?
Business class is most worth it on long-haul and overnight flights, where a flat bed lets you sleep and arrive rested. It also suits you if you’ll work on board or need the extra luggage, and the lounge helps before a long trip. On a short flight the seat isn’t much better, so the extra cost is harder to justify.
How much luggage can you take in business class?
Most airlines give business class passengers two checked bags of up to 32kg each. On routes where the airline counts by weight instead, the allowance is usually around 40kg in total. You can normally bring two cabin bags too. The exact allowance depends on the airline, the route and your fare, and we list it on your quote.
How much does a business class flight cost from the UK?
There’s no fixed price. Business class fares from the UK change daily and depend on where you’re going, which airline you fly with, your dates and how early you book. Short-haul fares are much lower than long-haul ones. For a starting point, see the featured fares from London on this page. We’ll send live prices with your free quote.
When is the cheapest time to book business class flights?
Book several months ahead for busy times like school holidays, Christmas, Ramadan or Eid, as the cheapest business fares on each flight sell first. At quieter times, an airline sale or moving your dates a few days can lower the price. Last-minute fares sometimes drop on flights with spare seats, but often go up instead, so waiting is risky.
Is it cheaper to book business class through a travel agent?
It can be. Travel agents can sometimes get fares that airlines don’t sell on their own websites, and a consultant can compare several airlines and routes for you in one go. Airline sales sometimes beat agent prices, though, so compare before you book. Our quotes are free and there’s no obligation, so you can check our price first.
