I just flew NRT-SEA last week with 4 1k's on Delta's 747 upper deck business class, and WOW amazing meal, great seat. The plane was FULL. well hopefully some were paying more than the $86 we paid on the RGN-YVR run

UA has had several years already since merger-planning began to order 3-class cabins if they wanted them, yet the only movement we've seen so far has been in the opposite direction. Does it really seem likely that they've secretly ordered 3-class equipment that they'll surprise us with some day? IMHO that ship has sailed.
UA does not have 3 class planes......??? the First Class is just a better seat nothing else..
