If you had ever had an expense account then you wouldn't. It's part of the deal.

  The place I work requires you to take business class for transoceanic flights. Somebody on my team got yelled at for taking coach after the event canceled and he couldn’t get a refund. $8k for midwest to Glasgow? Sign me up lol

    You're required to take it? And you get to expense it I assume? Blessed. I have to fight for it where I work. We had one contract with frequent overseas travel where the prime contractor guys all got to expense business class -- they didn't tell us of course so for a couple years we were stuck in coach. But I found out somehow, and pretty quick our guys were flying business too. Living the dream.

      It's pretty common for any flight over 4 hours to be business class required. I'm driving millions of dollars per revenue...being tired for the first 2 days of a 3 day trip to London simply isn't efficient.

    The company I worked for didn't require it, but budgets were ummm... generous? A last minute request (2 day before) to fly business to smaller European city was responded to with "yeah, that's fine, just keep the ticket under $20,000".
