I guess I can't complain about the photocopied black and white menu I received back in may.

Are clean, undamaged menus and wine lists boarded? Clean bedding? Catering has been verified? etc etc.

I always ask for the mattress pad (not sure why they do not automatically give these out) and use a wet wipe to wipe down the flat services - now providing a couple of those as we pre-board would be a nice enhancement.
I wonder if the privacy of the Polaris seats make it more difficult for the cleaning crew to get into each individual seat to do a thorough cleaning?

Or if you're based out of non-hub and have to make a tight connection. Or if you're unfortunately flying out of DEN which will not get a Polaris!

Well, I guess we'll all just have to write in to express our disappointment with the way Polaris is going down. Someone should do a template that we can all just copy and send after our Polaris flights.
