CO's premium cabin is far better, including the fact that they have AVOD in ALL classes. It amazes me UA would even put these crappy planes into services on a route that competes with the likes of Sing Air, Cathay, Korean Air, etc etc. I feel like I have walked back in time. At least CO has a clean and a "newer" fleet.
Sigh.

You must have missed all the posts earlier in this thread that explained that UA has a new C (and F) product that is installed on all 747, all 767, and some 777 with the rest getting upgraded over time.

The old C is not an different than the old CO BF product. And last I checked, that's still in use.

So please, can we just stop this nonsense about CO being sooooo much better than UA. At least look at the facts first.
