Bonus points if there's a glass of champagne etc. in the picture, but this might not seem businesslike if it's too realistic.

Probably could crop the Saks bedding or position oneself so that it blocked the bedding.

I'll say from experience with that photo: when you test it out to get your positioning right and notice the United logo looks reversed — DON'T get clever and flip the image yourself. Zoom will show it the correct way to everyone else.

The photo in the first link is cool, and the zoomer would probably hide the bedding without additional effort required.

It would still be better with a PDB glass for champagne added if OP wants to have fun with this.

Well, that went over well.

Here's two other images from the United 747 Farewell Master Thread thread that are a bit light hearted:





And, a little humor from the "look what upgrading to First gets you" images:








Not sure that the script font made them any more appealing but who knows what UA/CO marketing testing found...

A few photos on celebrating UA’s inaugural SIN to SFO flight on June 3rd, 2016.

Deputy Chief of Mission of US embassy, Executive VP of Changi Airport and UA VP of Atlantic and Pacific Sales were present at the ceremony.

(Why quit when I'm behind... )

Digging around in some of my phone shots, found the following...

Here's a bus going who knows where:



Some times you get to fly on a really, really big plane:



Apparently I had a flight that flew really, really high earlier this year:



....but very slowly....

And sometimes our planes will fly in circles:





(of course my cell phone shots would be in focus if I didn't drink so much when I fly... )

last one for now - tipping in the LAX Polaris lounge:
