My question is really concerning the visitor seat. If we decide to have the meal together on the plane using the visitor seat, is it really a pleasant experience or is it actually a little crowded? Is the table really even big enough for two?

I'm sure you First regulars will have tried it and have an opinion.

Frankly my biggest worry is that we'll get too excited, quaff a bit too much Champagne before even getting on board and then have no recollection of the flight.
