Have to agree with UA. There is certainly nothing special about Domestic FC on any US carrier but I think the seats are more comfortable on UA and the extra pitch is very welcome to us tall flyers. I have no status with UA so I cant comment on that. Only negative is the E145. UA seems to love them, I think they are the worst planes in the air today. Every flight I take on UA starts with a 3 hr flight on a #@%$ 145!!
