MU long haul C a few days ago was exactly what I expected. Same as BR across the board. Exact same seats. Prefer these to the KE 2-2-2 on the Airbe or the older DL 777.

Service and food was fine, though as always Asian carries do not quite grasp that Westerners drink more fluids than Asians.

Regional though was more like a DL domestic F. Nothing wrong with it, but not for sleeping.

At PVG the new central MU club had a nice food selection but was otherwise somewhat plain. And I also had the not uncommon experience of sitting on the tarmack for two hours waiting for air clearance.

The one negative I would note is that checking in at JFK (after connecting from ATL) was a comedy show. Took 20 minutes, and this was after having already done the psuedo on line check-in. The agent ripped up 5 incorrect BPs in the process. [DL will not print these so you must hit the TA counter]

Overall I would fly MU if it saves some cash and I am not on a tight schedule.
