I think the upper-deck is very overrated and I suggest you all take half a dozen trips downstairs just so you can see for yourself.

Seriously, compared to what the upper-deck used to be, these days it's just another section of the plan. I always wanted to walk the spiral stair, sit at the bar, listen to the piano ...
Okay, I have to disagree about LD v. UD, though I agree about F v. UD (of course, who wouldn't?). When we flew on 863 in May, you can't say that it was a) quiet or b) dark or c) at all personal in 22. Did not even compare to what it's like upstairs. Granted that day I forewent a row 12 offering, but I think I may have regretted even that (except for the lovely chat with you, Brisbane)
