PTS Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 That first class looks gaudy as hell. The economy class looks like the first class on a lot of American airliners. Let's keep buying their oil I guess! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marv's Neighbor Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 I flew F from Dulles to Rome and back from Frankfurt to Dulles, on a United 777, last October. Great service, not an A380, but no wing cracks either. The return flight had the new 7 seat F configuration. The flights from the USA to Europe are usually overnignt, so the bed was nice. The return was all during daylight, so the bed was there, but I didn't use it. I still prefer the 747's but they are getting hard to find. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Avenger Posted August 29, 2012 Share Posted August 29, 2012 And the most amazing perk - he didn't have to turn off all electronics during takeoff - the camera kept going... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr. Fong Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 He got a lot accomplished on a flight that isn't that long. Not sure if that was a promotional thing or just some random guy filming. If it was a random guy filming he probably spent his whole flight setting up shots and didn't get a chance to enjoy the flight. Oh well. I wish I had money to burn like that. The best I ever did was get bumped up to Business class one time from Narita to Bangkok. Thanks JAL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fan in San Diego Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 How much was the ticket? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zow2 Posted August 30, 2012 Share Posted August 30, 2012 He said the ticket was only $550 US (one way) so that's not bad. It was a short flight. The only bad part of that type of experience is having to land and get off. Heck i'm excited about flying on an award ticket this weekend on American, first class.

unbillievable Posted August 31, 2012 Share Posted August 31, 2012 That seems cheap for the luxury he got. It's only a 1000 mile flight, or about the distance from New York to Miami. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For 550 shouldn't he get an updated newspaper? That wedding happened over a year ago. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
