Except on the 737 where it states in the Operations Manual it must be Seat 1B in 1st class. So do 8+ EWR-Carribean turn and you will get a 1st class seat. Fly 9 hours from TXL-EWR on the 757, you just might be in coach. Guess what airplane the snake who negotiated our last contact held captain on? Well at least before he ran to management a few months later.
