Seat and amenities aside, I find one of the biggest gambles in economy is the type of people that you might have to sit next to.
lwildnorva said this but we got up normal time in the morning, 8am caught our flight which was just under 9 hours because we flew out of MIA, overnight flight and landed at 8am Paris time. We didn't check in until 1pm which was really 7pm back home on the east coast, thats how it ended up being almost 36 hours. I was ready to go exploring but my GF insisted we sleep. Get acclimated to the time zone and you'll be fine. Also, our plane was a 767 so it had the 2-3-2 seating and we made sure to pick the 2 seats together. However, there were some empty seats in the middle so some people moved around to get more space, but thats not always the case.
