Cultural Tip
In Brazil, “classe executiva” is the standard term for the airline’s business‑class cabin. When confirming a choice, Brazilians often pair “sim” with the prepositional phrase to make the answer explicit. Avoid mixing up “classe executiva” with “primeira classe” (first class), which is a separate, more luxurious tier on some airlines.
