This December, are UA's business class options any better from EWR vs. IAD or ORD?

I think AA's saver is 57,500 each way in business class...not sure abt UA...

LATAM's reviews look better in terms fo food and wine than AA. Laurent Perrier is certainly a better champagne, as one yardstick.
You won't really see the real benefits of Polaris until they get the new seats. Yes, it's marginally better with the new bedding, food, and wine, but not great. I think AA and DL for now still have a better product overall.

With UA routes, look for 767 flights, there are fewer seats across but it's otherwise the same badly outdated seat.

What about LATAM via SCL?
