He does compare transcon F:
US does not believe in choice. No movie. No short subjects. No moving map. No headsets, therefore no audio. No real glasses. No light meal or sandwich like other domestic red-eyes.
On red-eye transcontinental flights, even cost-cutting United serves drinks in real glasses, offers a freshly prepared light snack, headsets, a movie and audio, as well as live air traffic control communications and hot coffee before landing.
