UNLESS you get the redone plane by then, the 767-200 seats, as indicated by the above posts, leave a lot to be desired. (I like the 767-300 seats.) They do have footrests, which don't go up high enough. I've flown the 767-200 (and, for that matter, the 767-300) transcon more times than I can count (although generally from or to JFK), and have never received an amenity kit on either equipment. Breakfast is typically 3 choices: fruit plate with cereal, an egg concoction of some sort, and something like pancakes/French toast. They NEVER stock enough (supposedly storage space is too limited) for everyone to get their first choice. They did for a time offer 2 choices for the snack, but nowadays it's only one. "Premium wines" is a bit hyperbolic; while they're definitely better than those half-frozen baby bottles in Y and certainly drinkable, they're typically wines like Cartlidge & Brown you could buy at about $5 or $6 at retail (imagine what UA pays for them). I wasn't aware of the RCC access, but I'm a member so it wouldn't have mattered. Service depends largely on the particular crew; most of them tend to do a disappearing act.
