Just for the record, I'm not terribly happy about the changes, but I would like to know why people are so upset about CR-1s'.
1. Not having to sweat it even for somewhat long flights, especially meals (convenience, not because they are gourmet offerings). There are also other coast to coast flights that are not PS.
2. Mrs. MMProfessor will never get UDU. So, when I travel with her, I need the CR1 or else I will be in the back of the plane as well.
