When you fly coach, do you...

[Deleted]

...ever go past the curtain and use the business class or first class restrooms?

[sparkythelawyer]

If it is open and the back one for us poor folk is occupied? Yep, sure do. But we all know I have no class :-)

[Captain Serious]

Sometimes, on really long, overnight flights, when everyone is asleep and the bathroom is at the back of first class, just past the curtain.

[Deleted]

No because the attendants are super strict about classes mixing.

And terrorism, or whatever.

[rodeored]

No, but I have seen the attendants yell at people trying to do so.

[Moe]

No.

Isn't that crystal clear after the 13872340982374029847 announcements that it can't be done? Miso, stay in your area!

Ahem.

I'm the irritated elitist asshole in this scenario.

LOL.

[lilybug]

No, but I've never had to pee so badly that waiting for "my" restroom to be available wasn't an option.

like miso flys coach

LOL. I fly coach all the time.  Just not today.

But, when I do fly coach, I stay in my area.

[flex]

I do use that bathroom if I'm not in first class. But only if my seat is close by and I ask politely first. I'm a Gold member on AK Air so I have a huge sense of entitlement. lol

Nope.  Just less frequented.

OR AT LEAST THEY SHOULD BE.

Muahahahahahahaha.

[pantsparty]

No because RULES!

[angelaa73]

GET TO THE BACK OF THE BUS, PROLETARIAT!!

[mirandahobbes]

I can't remember the last time I've even been on a plane that had more than one class. Or maybe I just don't see "class". I like to believe we are all just people.

If there were an option, no, I would not cross contaminate the elite by using their bathroom. My second-class ass knows where it is not wanted.

[suzyp]

No. Because I follow the rules - and this is one of the rules.

[Deleted]

Many people have come up with their children.

And then smile at me semi-apologetically.

And I just stare, emotionless.

[Deleted]

At first I was like - why the hell is miso flying coach?

Then I was like - oh, yeah, I see what's happening.

[VeryViolet]

I have when I was about to pee my pants and got shooed from congregating at the back but my seat was so close to the front that I could never get to the back before some other asshole. I told the flight attendent my plight and she granted me permission. Lol

Generally I don't though because I am not a rule breaker.

elle, you always know the right thing to say, and you do it so succinctly.  lol

It's not a class thing.

It's an I-paid-a-fuckload-of-money-and-I-don't-want-crowding thing.

Well, if I'd actually paid. LOL.

Did John Lennon ever fly coach with the Plebes as a Beatle?

Yeah, but this didn't use to be a rule and they haven't allocated more toilets to the back since 9/11. Of course, I remember the days when the pilots would let you tour the cockpit and they gave out playing cards. I miss Pan Am.

It's pathetic that air travel has sunk so far that access to adequate restrooms is an extravagance now. 

[Moe]

Regional Airlines (puddle jumpers).

I guess they technically have class but it only applies to the order of entrance?

What airlines don't have first class? Southwest, Jet Blue?

And some short distance regional flights.

Horizon, ERA, etc.

Exactly. It's not like they divide you up as you board. 'You, ALL the way to the back'. 'Ah, you ma'am, right here in the big, cushy first class seat, would you like a champagne'?

Wait. Isn't this what first class is like?

[Deleted]

Lol at unwashed masses.
