Couldn't one also get DVT in F or J???

By the way, it seems as though the newest marketing gimmick is to call it "Main Cabin" now. Seems weird.

Ah, I missed that angle. I love IST, but spend a week at least!

A friend once told me that she paid to ride J to NRT to avoid DVT.

Well, perhaps you're not likely to get it in a J lie-flat.

It wasn't DL, so I'm not sure. Either way, it's easily avoided in Y. Not worth spending 10x for!

Basic rule from Contract Law: Past performance is not valid for future consideration.

It sucks, but large entities don't care what you did then or even what you're doing now, they only care what you're going to do later.
