I know this is sacrilegious but I don't have a F bucket list like some of ya'll have.
i have a bucket list of places and I like to get there without being treating like cattle, but I don't feel the need to try out every F product or fly nowhere just to try a product out.
To each their own. Many here, including me, love flying, love experiencing different planes, and love experiencing different airlines.
It's clear you're not one of those people. And that's OK.
Vacations for us, though, are about more than just the destination. They're also about the journey.
Among other things, being able to experience a nice first class product means to people like me that the vacation starts when you take off and not when you arrive, or, with airlines that offer free chauffeur, even sooner: from the moment you leave your house.
I know I'm not alone in saying that if EY F A380 had a glitch fare for $50 for JFK-AUH-JFK with a same day return, I wouldn't even hesitate clicking "purchase," completely giddy at the prospect.
You view that as "flying to nowhere."
We view that as a "unique and wonderful opportunity to experience more in life."
