I agree the IFE and food is secondary. Not sure how much better sleep is on UA c-class seat with non working footrests vs. ambien induced night in SQ coach. Never flown SQ coach.
BTW, this is a honeymoon trip.
SQ coach is pretty tight, and don't forget that Y seats have a 100% chance of non working footrests.
