    it's not that they grounded my flight. It's not that I called at 6 am and they knew nothing, although it was totally clear that all the LA->AU flights were on A380 planes, it's not the way the staff in LA totally screwed me around, it's all of that and more, the waves and waves of incompetence that I am forced to endure. I am stuck in LA. I just want to go home.

            Hehe - I saw a programme about an airline and one guy wanted to work cabin crew because he reckoned all the other male cabin crew would be gay so there would be no 'competition'. He basically got laughed off the training course with a good kick.

              Each airline chooses the interior style so go by that rather than aircraft.

                    This doesn't help, I know but at least you are not flying Delta. They were voted worst airline in 2010.

                          They are decent. I sleep on them fine. They have little bags to put your feet in which is not quite lying down, but better than sprawling, seated.

                              I flew United once and I'll never fly an American airline again, across the pacific. The planes are older than my mother.
