This has been mentioned twice but UAL has lie flat business class seats that are god awful on their HKG-USA flights.
It's 2 X by 4 X by 2 X and it's 13 hours and it's awful. It's literally like sitting in coach. There's no "pods" at all (that's for UAL global first which we now aren't eligible for under this contract). You have people climbing over you or you're climbing over someone else. Your elbos are actually touching the persons next to you; the arm rests are just like coach.
I've been on it. Good luck deviating as well with a 2700 dollar bank on that leg. This is the new "go to" flight for global travel getting crews to/from HKG. Their MBO points are rolling in!
Thanks "lie flat" in lieu of first....
Since the flight was more than 10 hours the bank should have been for discounted first, regardless of the lie flat seat booking.
