But aside from that, the service was good, the food good, the boarding orderly (used a jetway which surely helped) and the FAs were reasonably attentive. The IFE was so-so but not that bad.

For 4-hour segs, try comparing CE to any ORD/DFW-West Coast MD80 F trips. I know which way I'd vote...

How did you lose your A-C seats?
I'll take the Mad Dogs any day over the slave ships. JMHO.
