Just wonder what you all think....

RG B777s

Depends the route you are flying. UA uses the 767 for both its daily flights (ORD and IAD), while RG uses the MD-11 from LAX, JFK while the B777 is used from MIA.

It also depends what you value more: comfort, IFE, seat pitch or the food?

RG sixth B777 (PP-VRF) is almost ready and will start service to JFK very soon. Four of RG B777s are ex-UA. RG will also receive three ex-UA in the coming semester: PP-VRG/H/I.

Rgs,

Go with United

Read the thread "TORTURE on MD-11 long haul (C class)". Varig's C product is probably one of the worst in the industry. Do yourself a favor and choose UA.
