First-class fares (about $12,000) account for a small portion of the premium trans-Atlantic market, and some of the major players, like Virgin Atlantic, do not even have first-class cabins. The posted round-trip fare is about $8,800, on top-shelf carriers like British Airways or Virgin Atlantic, and the less luxurious but still comfortable business classes of domestic airlines like American, United and Continental. Virgin has about 15 percent of the premium-class seats on that route.
