The Boisverts said...: WOW.
I'm dying to know how much that seat would cost...I'm gonna guess for a round trip flight say from MA to CA it'd cost 2K? Whaddaya think? I'd love to know...; 7:53 PM
Jerry said...: Those seats are for international flights so I just looked up the price for round trip from Boston to London:

"Price found as low as USD 6,826.80"

Yes! Almost $7,000! Or as they put it "as low as..."

I'm flying to London in a couple weeks, maybe I should upgrade my $500 tickets :-); 11:52 AM
The Boisverts said...: AAAAHHHH!!! 7K?!? That's insane. That could feed a lot of hungry kids in the world.
Have fun in London, Jerry...I'm a bit jealous!!!; 12:33 PM
