I thought nothing could be worse than my few Delta Y experiences until I had the misfortune of travelling on US Airways on ancient 757s across the Atlantic last summer.
+1. Have had 2 horrible experiences on DL going TA, both after having AF flights cancelled. One was on a 757 for 8 hours, on a CDG-BOS. Never felt so cramped in my life.
Another one was a world class display of horrible food on a AMS-DTW. I didnt touch the breakfast at all and the pizza served before landing stands out as the most disgusting food item I have come across in my life.

I dont care much about state of the art IFE or carry on allowances. I need a decent seat, edible food (AF Y food out of CDG is second only to TK in my experience) and lounge access before fligts and when transitting.
