+1, this or that. 4 hours of sleep, after checking in, dragging my luggage to my room (or worse yet, tipping a bellman to do it - adding to the cost), getting up in time to freshen up, dragging my luggage back down, checking out...

For me, that usually turns into about 2 hours of sleep, and that's IF I don't sleep through my alarm, or fail to get a wake-up call, making things much worse.

I would much rather pay $99 for a three hour upgraded flight where I'm more likely to get 3 1/2 hours of sleep by the time you add taxiing out and in. Sometimes I can sleep in E+, but I can always sleep in F.
