Thank you for the replies. Honestly, I could care less if I were in coach or first class. I am a small guy and sleep like a rock so I would not notice the difference. I am only considering this for my wife. Both of us have only flown in coach in the past and I wanted to make this a special experience for her now that we have the means. I know the extra $500 for the both of us is not much but my frugality is the issue. I guess I will bite the bullet and book the flight.
