F is OK on the big CRJs, but still better on the big Embraers. I prefer the seats, the overhead bins are still bigger, and the F lav on the Embraers is actually reasonably sized. The F lav on the big CRJs is a cruel joke and makes the CR2 lav look spacious.

Still nuts. Unless you're drugged. I could do it if I was under some serious sedation.

Ending a sentence with a preposition is poor behaviour, up with which we should not have to put.

I would probably require a kippie bag filled with bourbon each way.

I was thinking more along the lines of anesthesia.

I could probably do it in E+ with alcohol.

I'll admit to being spoiled. It took several years and a half-dozen long-haul international flights in the pointy end of the plane before I experienced a flight in Y longer than IAH-SEA. That makes it even harder to contemplate riding in the back when changing continents.
