Let me conclude my EWR-SFO story. The CO649 was delayed 3-4 hours, but my CO749 left on time, and even arrived into EWR ahead of schedule. It was an international configured 757 so was able to get a decent sleep in F, however I must admit that the recline and foorrest length is not up to the standards of today seen on other flights (and prob. on the CO777 also - haven't been on that).
The "snack" was a soup and a steak and cheese sandwich, and the highligt of it all "two small peices of chocolate". Wish they would serve something a bit lighter, but I guess this comes down to individual taste.
Overall a good flight, friendly crew and professional service.
