In addition to the aforementioned better seats, hard liquor and snack basket, you also get meal service during "meal hours." I admit it's not international business class and the flight's only two hours, but it still makes for a nice(r) ride, although the E175 on the LGA/ORD route is not a horrible plane in back -- the seats are 1.25" wider (18.25" per seatguru.com) than AS/QX seats in coach, which is noticeable.
