Not quite, but almost. (Are you alleging that the unemployed on welfare can afford intercontinental flights, though not ones with good drinks? [EDIT: But yeah, for an unemployed person there seldom are practical, non-signalling reasons to need intercontinental flights. I could probably come up with better examples if I were less sleep-deprived.])
The last time I was unemployed I took an intercontinental flight from NYC to SFO for a job interview. I’d classify that as a practical, non-signalling reason. :-)

Hypothesis: you had savings for such a situation, or got aid from someone else. ?
(I would also classify it as practical, non-signalling, given the current information. :) )
