This is one of my biggest pet peeves especially flying BR J all the time. Also amazing flying NH F on the 77W and no air vents. I bring a portable USB fan with me on these flights. Guess I need to be careful of the UA config if I ever fly them again TPAC/TATL!

Actually, NH has them on the regional 788s, amazingly.
