Also - on a different note - now that I have flown TG's Premium Economy at 42 in pitch and 3 meals served with some decent wines - I am really starting to wonder if $5000-$7000 AA Biz through DEL is worth it when compared to TG (and some extent SQ) premium econ through BKK (or SIN) for about $1800-2500...

But - that's for a different thread to determine
