First class airfare website
 
Does anyone know of any websites that sell discounted first or business class airfare? The rates quoted by the airlines are outragous.

I was not impressed with 1st-Airnet when I subscribed last year. I entered 3 different dates for 3 different trips and each time I got the same message: "Unfortunately we cannot offer you a special fare for the dates you requested." They seem to specialize in Europe and Asia and since subscribing I get numerous e-mails from them that are irrelevant to our type of travel (within U.S. & Caribbean). We found that booking a package through a travel agent was the best way to get discounted first-class tickets to our destinations, but perhaps you'll have better luck with 1st-air. I did an extensive search on this very topic last year and didn't come up with anything new.

Ask your travel agent to get you a consolidator fare for FIRST CLASS--

these are discounted rates that are only available to TA's....and most are for Europe/Asia...

Yes - I forgot to mention that we were also offered the discounted fare to Aruba without the package. Savings was good - usual fare R/T was around $1600 and discounted fare would have been under $1100.
