In January, my wife and I flew to OGG and back. On the way there AA subbed a 763 for the scheduled 757 (due to overbooking on the 757 I think). We enjoyed the increased pitch and recline in F and didn't think service was a joke at all since we understand it's business class not first class and it's domestic and not international. On the return we were in the two-seat row 9 of the 757 which was the best we could do since F was sold out. Given the choice, I'll vote for the 763 F section any day of the week -- especially when it only costs me $125 per seat over a heavily-discounted coach fare.
