The answer is very little. Fast-tracking passengers through security is all well and good, but in reality saves precious little time for additional work. Equally, a few inches more legroom and metal cutlery are pleasant, but not essential for a flight that lasts such a short time. And beyond those small things, the benefits become even less apparent. Your correspondent didn’t even have access to a plug socket to charge his laptop. In fact, if anything, having more attentive cabin staff proved to be a distraction from working on the flight, especially when they seemed intent on plying those in front of the curtain with complimentary drinks. Whisper it, but companies may actually prefer their staff to fly coach on short-haul flights if they want to ensure sobriety at the other end.

The real utility of flying business class on such journeys has little to do with the plane at all, but the access it grants to airport business lounges while waiting to board. These comfortable, relatively quiet spaces with fast Wi-Fi are a good place to get things done away from the chaos of the departure lounges—especially if delays or the need to make a connecting flight mean spending hours in limbo. But as any road warrior knows, you don't need to fly premium to gain access to these havens. Various frequent flyer or membership schemes that any seasoned traveller will subscribe to already do that job.

Little surprise, then, that many organisations refuse to sanction business-class travel on short-haul flights. When budgets come under scrutiny, it is difficult to justify paying four times the price of a coach-class ticket, when the benefits are so marginal. When it is a client footing the bill, this correspondent is more than happy to demand encore du Nicolas Feuillatte, of course. But in the end it would be better to see budgets realigned to bestow comfortable journeys to more long-distance travellers at the expense of shorter hops for a few.
