Depending on the type of plane that you board, you either walk right past them all, or you are forced to turn the other way and never even see them. We're talking about the first class or business class seats. The back of the plane is where why find ourselves nine times out of ten, but we can always dream about the promised land. That's why we wanted to share what we know about flying in the front of the plane, and what it takes to get there. Check out what we found:

If you’re a hotshot and heading to Los Angeles for an important meeting, then you have two different options on American Airlines. They offer both a business class and a first class seat between JFK and LAX. We checked out some fares for the first week in June, and business seats are around $2,600, while first class seats are about $5,300. You’d be leaving on flight 1 and returning on flight 2, which is just a cute little sidenote.

Despite some of our personal experiences with US Airways, the airline does in fact have some quality service options if you’re willing to shell out the additional cash. Heading out from their hub in Philadelphia to London costs around $3,800. If you would rather stick around in the lower 48, then heading from Charlotte to San Francisco costs around $1,600—which isn’t really that bad compared the options on some other airlines; however, this is still US Airways after all.

Continental Airlines has a lot going on right now, but at the moment, things should remain somewhat stable until they merge their forces with their new pals over at United. If you want to test out the Continental seats one last time before the outside of the plane has a different name on it, now is the time to do so. Head out the first week in June from Newark to Frankfurt and you’re looking at an addition of about $4,800 to the monthly budget. If your passport is expired, the airline would be happy to whisk you from coast to coast as well. A flight from Newark to Seattle up in the front will cost $1,300.

United Airlines has a lot of its flights coming and going from the middle of the country, so we understand the need to escape to the coast; however, doing so in the front of the plane is going set you back a few bucks. During the first week of June a flight from Chicago to San Diego will cost about $1,700 in business class. United does offer a true first class option as well, and this will cost you $18,000 from Chicago to Tokyo. Things seem like a bargain in business class for only $8,000 on the same route to Asia.

A roundtrip on Delta in the front from JFK to LAX will set you back about $2,585 for the first week of June, and if you want to go international a trip from their base in Atlanta to somewhere like London it will cost $7,170. It might be worth sitting in the back so you can go more than once in a lifetime.

The airline consistently ranked as best in the world for service, is also tops when it comes to fashion and amenities. Of course we're talking about Singapore Airlines, and we just realized that not only do they have sweet ipod hook-ups to the in-flight entertainment, but that all of their amenity kits and the first and business class bedding, pajamas and dishware are all from French luxury fashion house Givenchy.

We've spent years craving the Marc Newson-designed pajamas in Qantas first class, the Shanghai Tang togs on Cathay Pacific and the Anya Hindmarch amenity kits in British Airways first class, but Givenchy is miles above those. ]]> JetSetCD 2010-02-04T11:20:12-05:00 http://www.jaunted.com/story/2009/2/23/35219/8996

Some airlines fascinate us with bidets in their first class lounges, but Singapore Airlines has won us over with what we can only describe as style and sophistication.

This is their hometown lounge at Changi Airport and we like it for its late-night, Lost-in-Translation vibe. This is an airport lounge where elegant strangers fetch you drinks and (we figure) anything can happen.

The nice part is that Singapore Airlines actually lives up to the expectations this lounge gives you: remember their fancy-looking first class cabin on board? Attractive strangers welcome in either spot.
