I expect the FF's will be noticing this....
"Thank the travel gods for America West. Until they merged a couple months ago, your $1,000 for first class got you only a snack box and a Coke. Now expect 38 inches of seat pitch and food on all flights including items like chicken cordon bleu with California Pasta salad."

It is such a crock. They do not know of what they speak. US East stopped serving boxes in August last year (I remember because that is when those horrible Greek Scrambled Eggs were served--sorry Piney, I recall you liked them--you may have been the only one by the way). Chicken Cordon Bleu? Are they kidding? How about nothing on DFW to PHL. Nothing on FLL-PHL. And on PHX-PHL I bought the BOB because the meal was so bad. Oh, and the snack basket is lucky to be fully stocked.
They only comment on UA's PS service--their regular FC service is top notch as well.
I have heard a rumor from the CP desk that FC service will be improving. Who knows if this is true....

UA's seats are very comfortable--particularly with the wings on the headrest. And, Channel 9 is a great feature on UA. There is no comparison between UA and US premium class--domestic or international. Somebody was smoking crack when they thanked US for their FC product. The article has it wrong. Food on ALL flights? The last time I got food on a PHL-BOS flight...NEVER...nor do I expect it. And, the list goes on for flights that should have food, but don't. And, the food on US is junk--the food on a UA 2-hour flight is much better than the food found on US transcon.
