UA888 vs AF2
 
http://www.santacruzsentinel.com/san...ring-detention


Vice President Joe Biden, who was in South Korea to visit a war memorial in Seoul, spoke with Newman by phone Friday and offered him a ride home on Air Force Two. But Newman declined, telling the vice president he preferred to take a nonstop flight from Beijing to San Francisco.
Now that's loyalty.

AF2 is usually a C-32 or the military version of the Boeing 757. Based in pictures I have seen, the seats are basic business class recliners. AA frequent flyers familiar with the old school domestic F cabin call them the "Eisenhower" seats. If I had a J or F ticket, I'd go with the UA 744.

Actually, it's common sense. Lie-flat > old-style recliner.
