This is my first flight greater than 6 hours - so I'm quite nervous right now. Any information would be helpful!
Thank you!!!
Worth it or not is up to the person paying. For me, flying coach overseas is like torturing, I'd rather not go at all if I have to fly coach. I'd only fly coach overseas if I absolutely have to.
With that said, I believe they're still using the second gen business class seats for the JFK-ICN route, these seats are lied flat seats with an angle; I also don't believe the planes for that route has audio/video on demand. Service will be excellent and the food will be decent, you will certainly enjoy your trip a whole lot more than flying coach.
Also, if your flight does use angle lied flat seats, don't forget to manually adjust the seat some more after you use the lie flat preset button to flatten the seat, as you can flatten the seat out a little more even after the lie flat pre-set is activated.
