When I was younger (and poorer), I travelled UK-AU-UK in Y many times (mainly with UA via LAX/SFO). But, of course, my first flight was in F on BA.

Now that I am older and less poor, it's my choice not to travel in economy. As they say, if it's in Y, I'm not going (of course unless it's a life and death situation).

I'm not sure if that still makes me a "snowflake" (great word, but). I must ask my kids about it (I'm sure they'd laugh)...

Edit:
for all those who were wondering (I guess that's just me):
A term for someone that thinks they are unique and special, but really are not. It gained popularity after the movie "Fight Club" from the quote “You are not special. You're not a beautiful and unique snowflake. You're the same decaying organic matter as everything else."
So there you go...
