I found the EC pretty pleasant on the 744 Combi

Sure 1AB is better...

+1 The EC on the 744 Combi is pretty comfy from IAH-AMS. (LAX is only 500 more miles)

All while knowing you are going to Russia to add insult to injury !

Last Russian woman tried to make a run with my money in Miami...They're probably more well trained in Russia. This one forgot her training.

Is it me or have prices in Russia inflated like crazy in the past two years? I was in OVB a few days ago on a layover and when I went to the city, I couldn't justify paying 6$ for a chicken burger from Carls jr.; and that was just the burger with no drink/fries...

That doesn't even get you a meal here in DC unless you're a McDonald's or Five Guys kind of guy...Would not consider McDonalds or Five Guys food though...

It's probably you - a $2.5 Big Mac is still quite reasonable

Well I was in Kygyzstan for two weeks before going through Russia back to the US. I think I probably got used to paying 1$ meals and seeing Carls Jr prices just made... disappointed (minds blank and couldnt think of a better, more descriptive word.)
