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....
Hopefully attached are pics (I couldn't get both cabins in one screenshot) of a UAL 747 First Class and Business Class cabin. My seat is "1" in First (bottom link). I've traveled in Business and it's no comparison. I'm tall and the business seats are barely wider (3") than coach. I was on the isle and thought I was OK but the man next to me had to get up at least 4-5 times and he wouldn't climb over so I had to bring my seat to full upright and get out into the isle so he could go to the bathroom. How much sleep do you think I got? I gave up and watched movies until I was stupid tired.
