Food was about the same between both airlines. The appetizer on CA was really good, prawn and smoked salmon, but the main course was a bit of a letdown.

the service was significantly better on CA than any UA experience I have had. Extremely attentive throughout the whole flight

Thanks for the data point!

I haven't flown the new polaris seats. What I like about CA's seats on the 332 is the sheer space. At 6'3 it's what I need.
