UA842 GRU-ORD Tue 26 Sep

Either we put on weight in Brazil, or the C seats are narrower in the 767 (later confirmed by seatguru.com). But they make up for this with an extravagant recline, so much so that I see what appears to be an emu-egg on my seat when I return from getting up during the night. On closer inspection it turns out to be the glistening bald head of the passenger in front, fully reclined.

6AB, good C seats in a full aircraft. Definitely better placed than F row 1, especially 1G, abutting the toilets and the galley and the all-night chatter of the FAs.

Friendly FAs including a sexy Swedish announcer but no Portuguese-speakers, rather a poor show for a Brazil flight and we frequently hear the FAs repeating themselves and shouting (in English) in the hope of being understood.

Taking bets between us whether the Pol Roger will be on, I am delighted to lose and we enjoy some fine Frrench champagne. ^ The rest of the C wines are woeful by comparison. Still, there's a pleasant meal preceded by warm nuts. One odd thing, throughout the journey we never see any Brazil-nuts. The crop must have failed this year.
