Booking Air with "Top Business Class" ??

I was recently sucked into looking at an ad on my e-mail system ad border while viewing a YouTube video on the new 787-9...TOP Business Class.com headquartered in San Francisco.

They claim to be able to book very low fares in Business ad First class apparently using non-refundable or less than 60 days from Departure seats.

Their ad fares are pretty spectacular for Biz/First seats these days...most specifically to Europe for starters. I had an Africa trip quoted Seattle-JNB roundtrip and the first quote was $3900...but that didn't get me to the departure point in SFO or to my final destination in Zambia....so buying further tickets to complete the trip.

They claim to have been in business for 6 years and are very pleasant on the phone. So far no bookings.

I wonder if anyone on AR has had experience booking with them??

Thanks much, Have a GREAT Fourth!!

Cheers,

No I have not. But I have used a company making similar claims. What they do is buy frequent flyer miles and use them to acquire tickets. It has worked for me. The discounts are deep.

I don't like the websites that make you put your phone number down to get any information but I'll probably check when Wifezilla and I fly to Europe next summer.

I tried CheapOAir and I found a better deal myself on Canada Air for business class than they offered on Turkish Air. Plus on Turkish Air I had to fly LAX to Istanbul and then to London. Coming home was London to Istanbul to LAX.

Larry,
That is interesting, they did NOT mention that, however there is one outfit called Destinations Travel that advertises a lot in SCI and DSC, Sports Afield magazines that do use purchased mileage. I have huge mileage balances and have had experts try to book seats, no luck!!...that's why I have been shopping alternatives. It is frustrating as I have airline employees flying on passes standby saying flights are "wide open!!"....Africa in September on Delta....
Can you share who you have used, feel free to PM me.
Thanks for your comments.

Cheers,

Regular seats are just fine with me
Plenty of walking and standing and flight goes by pretty fast
Plus what I save is more to spend on trophy fees
