Remember, the rule is that you are only allowed to upgrade a single person -- although sometimes they're more flexible.

I know I can legally only upgrade one person, but I figure if there is space and a nice agent, maybe they'll be nice and let me upgrade more pax, afterall the certs will go unused otherwise.

Don't worry, it's not a law. Nobody will be arrested.

A seat cushion, back rest, arm rests... much the same as most other seats, I believe. If you ask nicely, maybe it will fondle you -- or is that the new 321s?

I was in 7A on the domestic 763 2 weeks ago flying from Churchill to Kapuskasing. It was probably one of the most comfortable flights I've had in a long time. Yes you do get the regular seat cushion, back rest, arm rests but don't be fooled. The seat turns into a 195 degree lie flat seat for maximum comfort. The seat also has special features such as 47" HDTV video screen and a 5 disk DVD player. The DVD's that were playing when I was on the flight was Deuce Bigalow Male Gigolo, Meet the Fockers, and the Aviator. While I was on the plane I wanted to watch a plane movie so Deuce Bigalow Male Gigolo was great! The movie is a documentary about the type of aircraft and different types of airlines. The Aviator was hillarious it was about a male stripper but I'll let you figure that out on your own. Anyways someother great features about 7A is that it comes with are the toilets that play music and the water dances around just like at the Bellagio. The mini fridge which comes with an assortment of goodies such as Absolut Vodka, Shark Fin soup, and the square watermelons that you get from Japan. I hope you have a geat flight shore9!

If it is Fin 686,this footrest would not move out from the seat.I was on this a/c last week from Barbados.Otherwise,this is a crew rest seat and the rest of the cabin is configured 2-2-2.

well the flight has been downgraded to a 767 There is no way that many planes have gone mechanical on me in the last 14 months. If it's true AC has some real problems. Of the last 6 763's that I have been booked on in the past 14 months, 5 of them have been downgraded to a 767.

You should have checked first to make sure that Ken Haamer wasn't on your flight

I swear we must be related to Ken, my next flight which was a 763, is also now a 767, the last 10 flights that i've been on a 767, only 3 times was it supposed to actually be a 767. Being downgraded to a 767 70 percent of the time is hardly the fault of 763's going mechanical, this is complete crap.
