Off to Greece

We flew out of Boston on British Airways transiting thru London to Athens. Using my frequent flyer miles , I got us First Class tickets. We boarded first and were seated just behind the pilots, the quietest seats on the plane. The huge jumbo jet had just 14 seats in 1st class . We each had our own private cubicle that converted into a bed with mattress and a comforter. We dined on fine china off a restaurant like menu with fine wines etc. We were given gifts when we boarded including toiletries , pajamas and slippers. There were 2 stewardesses for the 14 of us. We have access to the 1st class airport lounge which looks like a 5 star bar and restaurant, with "free"  food and booze . It was all nice but I can't believe people actually shell out almost $12,000 for 2 round trip tickets, Boston/London. The mega rich do live well.
