I, on the other hand... I think it's just different priorities. Most likely I'd want to fly HKG-JFK via YVR just to milk the extra time in F.

Don't get me wrong - I know she appreciates travelling in premium cabins because she's always jealous of my getting op-uped when I travel alone. But, I guess, the flight for her is just a way to get from point A to B. Maybe after she flies F she will disagree.
My wife felt the same way UNTIL we flew F on BA IAD-LHR-BKK. Now the plane ride is almost as exciting as the destination. We're hoping to go ORD or YYZ - HKG. I haven't thought about JFK-YVR-HKG. I figured 15 -16 hours of uninterrupted F would be the best!
