as there is no way this post was not tongue firmly in cheek. Otherwise you proved SFO777's point.Next year we are flying Aeromexico to EZE for spring break, in Business Class. Maybe we'll see some folks on that flight... our party booked 7 seats together --- two young children with parents, an uncle and grandparents in tow.

I wouldn't knock BA First. I took the family on a trip to Europe and we were very comfortable and well fed up there in the front of the plane. Mom and baby slept together peacefully on the flat bed for 7-8 hours and the crew were very accommodating and didn't mind when the little one colored all over the seat and tray table. They made her a special meal and kept my champagne glass full of rosé bubbles. The spacious lavs were good for changing diapers too. All in all nothing to complain about for a family vacation.

I think we need a new forum where people post travel plans such as this with flights and dates so the rest of us can avoid them like the plague.

We'll be the large group in the pointy end of the plane.
Thank you all for a good laugh reading these comments today. I won't even mention Air China (DEL-PEK-SFO in J) in which my wife was throwing up during takeoff after a rather sumptuous meal at Bukhara in New Delhi just prior to departure.
And I must further apologize to the LH cabin crew on our recent FRA-SFO leg in which the little one projectile vomited all over the seat during landing. Something about the A380 is nausea-inducing for children I guess.

I would't want to watch... but I would!
Hopefully that wasnt LH First - otherwise we will have the next trip report of SFO777 only consisting of pics of him alternating between meticulously inspecting the seat/area around his seat for traces of vomit and keeping a wary eye out for projectiles of vomit ... which would be a shame coz his reports are really good

In all seriousness, none of our antics come close to a recent Jet Airways flight I took (YYZ-BRU) in which, when I reclined the seat flat, I found a huge lump of old, hard chewing gum stuck in between the seat and the armrest.
Now THAT is gross.

This fare is also good from:
JFK, PHL ~USD4300
MIA ~USD4100
Checked a few other locations, seems to be only Chicago and east
Is this really a good price or is it worth waiting for something better to show up for F travel (for a real trip, not MR)?
