Oct 2011, my friend and I were taking advantage of the dirt cheap round-trip fares to Europe after 9/11. We had booked $200rt JFK-DUB and got bumped up from coach to business on the way there. On the way home, the flight was virtually empty so we each had a row of 5 seats in coach to ourselves and slept the whole way back.
I was a Platinum on AA and we were flying Aer Lingus
