Mostly points. I'm short (5'4") so I never have a problem with the amount of room in my seat, thus an upgrade to first class isn't really needed.
I'm also leaning towards less direct flights; unless there's in flight entertainment. I flew BOS to Dallas direct recently, and I noticed that at the 2 hour mark, I got tired of sitting still, and wanted to walk around.
Does anyone else get antsy too? I'm not sure how people take sitting in one location for so long.
