For this kind of money I would have expected the suite to include a mini lake with a mini yacht floating on it. Without that I would feel like i'd been ripped off.

I thought alcohol and the Arab culture were not compatible? Something I heard in passing. Probably incorrect.

Flight looks nice. If I were a multi-billionaire perhaps.

Even as a billionaire I think I'd be thinking of the opportunity costs. I'm spending $40K on a flight. I could use that $40K to do some good for the poor. The whole teach a man to fish, help him drill a well for his village, educate his children, etc.

It isn't, but the powers that be understand that alcohol is important for tourists so they will serve it during flights and within the Middle East you can generally find a well-stocked bar at higher end hotels that cater to foreigners.

Well if you can't afford your own Gulfstream V, ride with the commoners (your seat gets there first).
