they have a lot to learn, when i was flying standby over the states few years back a 747 broke, 767 replaced it. Meant i was going no ware that night. (i only got on if their was a spare seat)

It was at WashingtonDC, i pushed two sets of seats together to from a raised area, raided the United Airline desks for some bed sheets, made a make shift bed, and made kip for the night, was not too bad, apart from damn security announcements.  :(

Was due to seats... 747 has a lot more than 767, lots of fare paying customers had the rights to the seats, flight was over sold anyway so i was not getting on.

My uncle worked for United and i got dirt cheap flights all over the states, only issue was i had to go standby with carry on only.

Bonus was i usually went Business Class  :D Paid £90 return to New York  :)

Did about 15-20 flights in total, only failed to get on twice.

You'll have to sit & hold my wife's hand. You'll make a matching pair!  ;D  ;D  ;D
The 9/10 hours to USA the other year finally finished her off regarding flying, she was terrified at the thought of getting on the plane when the holiday had finished.
We go every where by car now.  ;D  ;D :y

i was in it for the leg room personally! I am 6ft4 and i could full stretch out in business! If i sat on the end of seat, and lean forwards, i could not touch the seat in front

Food and service was excellent, you even got a menu and asked how i wanted my steak. Face value of business tickets to New York was about £1,500, so i bite my Uncles hand off when i could get them for £90.

I flew economy to Italy, only 2 hours, my god! Sod that! Only 2 stewards for 250 people? Business its 2 per 10!

No booze, no individual service, no leg room, no movies, no computer to play with  :'(
