After flying American Airlines out to Pittsburgh, I flew Breeze Airways back to Los Angeles in “Ascent” Class, its premium cabin, on an Airbus A220-300. While the experience was mostly positive with a comfortable seat, fast Wi-Fi, and friendly service, the aircraft was filthy. I’ve never been on a dirtier plane.
It’s somewhat of a strange way to do it, but I suppose it saves Breeze taxes since the federal excise tax is only levied on the base fare?
Thus, in my case it was $119 for the ticket and $192 for the upgrade, for a total of $311.
A great solo travel tip spotted this week on Live and Let's Fly.
