At the risk of excommunication from the UA forums, I really hate Rhapsody in Blue. What were they thinking? I'd much sooner they kept the Tulip and retained the anodyne but inoffensive music that Continental used to use. I'm sure it would have cost less due to rights as well.

Yeah, the 757 CO AVOD always had less content than the 777. See, you like to paint yourself as the ultimate low-rent Trip Reporter, but I see that you're struggling to live without the widebody amenities

Good to see another report Kevin, you must be knackered with all this (Y) flying! Take the rest of the year off...
