AC does deserve praise over most of their American competition, but at the same time I hate that they seem to try to just stay ahead of UA/US instead of trying to improve and have a level offering and service as the global airlines.
Sorry to be the bearer of the bad news, but CO is going to discontinue their free Y food program on domestic under 6 hour flights from fourth quarter 2010. At least AC provides a half decent AVOD free of charge in the back, CO charges $6 for LiveTV which will be installed in all of the domestic fleet.
