    edit to add: My goodness the disbelief in these being first class makes me think you haven’t flown on commercial airplanes very much.

    Literally 2 hours before your “edit to add”, an explanation was already provided. From the diagram, this might actually be business class, and my earlier claim that it would be “premium economy at best” was perhaps overstated. But still, this would never be “first class” on domestic flights here in Australia, or on any of the very many international flights I’ve been on during my time growing up as an expat.

      2 hours after that explanation I was still receiving NEW posts claiming it wasn’t First Class. People weren’t reading the later posts and, like you, claiming it wasn’t first class anyway. So one edit with a picture addressed both things.

      I don’t get to decide what to call it. Its not my airline. Delta calls it first class.

      But still, this would never be “first class” on domestic flights here in Australia,

      I’m glad to learn something about my friends in Australia. However, this is an airline in the USA and this is what they call it.

      or on any of the very many international flights I’ve been on during my time growing up as an expat.

      Nor any international flights I’ve been on, but as I said in a later post, this is a regional jet. In the states smaller regional jets like CRJ and Embraer move passengers from smaller cities to larger hubs for cross country flights or international.

        Sure, no problem with the fact that you felt the need to make an edit clarifying. The content of the edit was mostly very good. It’s interesting to learn!

        I just take issue with the notion that you knowingly prefixed the edit with “makes me think you haven’t flown on commercial airplanes very much”.
