TOP 10 Best Airlines for Business Class
Interesting to see non of the USA airlines have made the list as the write up is compiled via CNN.
Four Gulf airlines have made the list, Oman, Qatar, Etihad and Emirates. (Saudi Arabian Airlines has a long way to go to match their Gulf counterparts, although i’ve had pretty good friendly service on board, most of their business class seating is as good as economy on the other airlines and many of their aircraft are in need of a upgrade to maintain the Gulf consistency amongst all its carriers).
Oman Air comes in second after winning many awards in the last 2 years via Skytrax Awards. They certainly pride themselves with these awards as their airports are decorated with posters inside and outside with this achievement.
Read more on it here: http://www.worldairlineawards.com/Awards_2013/jseats.htm
Oman Air is the only airline I know of that asks its passengers to check in early as possible so ” they may experience their service”
With business class seating, each airline has it different for short, medium and long haul flights. Most times its standard on short and medium haul flights.( Eg. South Africa to Mauritius on SAA and many local flights within each respective countries).

Best airlines for business class
1. Singapore Airlines. Among its many best-in-class offerings, Singapore Airlines has a stellar culinary program: There’s Givenchy tableware and a special “Book the Cook” option that enables passengers to preorder their main course from a lengthy online menu. 
2. Oman Air. This airline offers door-to-door service with complimentary chauffeur-driven airport transfers in select destinations such as Paris, London, Muscat, Oman and Mumbai, India. 
3. Qatar Airways. The airline was the first to offer different wine selections going East and West out of Doha, Qatar, so that frequent fliers enjoy different selections on each leg
4. British Airways. The airline’s lie-flat seats have a distinctive “Z” position that extends to 6 feet, 6 inches and is ideal for watching movies, and the carrier’s lounges also garner top marks.
5. Etihad Airways. Etihad’s Pearl business-class cabin features 6-foot-1-inch flat beds with privacy shells and direct aisle access from every seat; food and beverage managers for each passenger; and thoughtful touches like mood lighting to help ease jet lag. 
6. SWISS. Attention to detail is what sets this airline’s business cabin apart: Expect out-of-the-box touches like all-veggie menus from Zurich’s Haus Hiltl, the world’s oldest vegetarian restaurant. 
7. Virgin Atlantic. Business travelers love this perennially popular carrier for all the reasons you’d imagine — modern planes, an upbeat staff and loads of perks in the cheekily named “Upper Class” like 22-inch-wide beds that convert to 33 inches when it’s time to sleep.
8. Cathay Pacific. This Hong Kong carrier still stands tall when it comes to providing passenger comfort, with one of the world’s widest business-class seats at 32 inches and a side storage compartment that doubles as extra knee space for those who prefer sleeping on their side.
9. Qantas. Passengers on this Australian carrier recline in award-winning Mark Newson-designed Sky Beds with massage options, and airline staff members do a turndown service with a mattress and duvet on request. 
10. Emirates. The fact that Emirates has one of the youngest fleets in the sky doesn’t hurt its reputation as one of the luxury airlines to beat.Free Etihad Guest Gold card for frequent flyers

Conclusion:
Etihad had this promotion twice during 2013. The first time was limited to the first 500 applications and the second time limited to the first 1000 applications. There does not seem to be a limited to this offer (yet). As we all know Etihad changes their minds with regards to terms and conditions over-night so best apply NOW, don’t delay.
Etihad has been building alliances with many other airlines ifnot buying stake into the airlines as well and the benefits of a Gold status will definitely come in handy.

Bonus:
Blend the special with selected bonus double mile destinations (check the website for more current offerings from your local hub)
Conclusion
25000 bonus miles is a huge promotion (considering Johannesburg to Jeddah requires 35024 miles return in coral economy) now blend that with the double or triple miles bonus offerings to selected destinations and fare classes and you basically have your next airline ticket free.
I cant imagine the amount of x 25000 bonus miles people will rack up for Abu Dhabi – Doha (1 hour flying time) per return. (cost AED 765). I wonder if paying and just flying aimlessly here to rack up miles will be in our mathematical economical favour..
Emirates has a 1day sale to Hong Kong @ R7600. Qatar has it on this special @ R5600. This sales good. Pity its not blending in with IHG specials due in 8 days time.
BEST OF 2013
The 1st question I asked: what if I have 10 kids, the answer: well your 10 kids will fry free, only infants will pay their specific full portion fare.
