Because of the gracious hospitality of UPS crews in the last two months I've ridden on a 744, 744BCF, MD-11, 767, and 757. Given Commando's ANC-HKG example I'd choose riding any of the above save the 767/757 vs transiting commercial via the west coast. Does that make me a management stooge? Personally I think it just means I'd rather another day at home rather than spending another day on the road.
I've also been on a FedEx 777 and MD-11. The 777 was pretty sweet but given a choice I'd take a Brown Mad Dog over a Purple one.
The catering is rather, um, functional, I'll grant you that. Still not worth spending a day on the road for vs at home.
