Living in the middle of the country, I don't get to experience p.s. very often...I've flown it a handful of times over the years, and the opportunity has come up again...
In paid business, SFO-EWR, I have the choice of a sCO 757 or an sUA 757. Departure times are :35 apart, and is irrelevant as I'm connecting on both ends with plenty of connection time allotted regardless of which flight I take.
I'm leaning toward the sCO flight, as I figure less seats roughly means better service. Is the number of seats about the only difference?
Seat maps are wide open on both (flight isn't for a few months yet), so I'm thinking bulkhead on whatever I book for the slightly better legroom.
The only slight, slight advantage may be the later flight (sCO) for me means :35 longer in SFO, as it means more time in the Amex lounge there versus the UC in EWR.
