Once I flew on a TWA flight on a big f*cking plane with giant TVs and stuff, and big meals. Not first class though, kinda felt elite though. This was in the 90s

Basically still the same BS. Spend hours waiting for your flight, then you get in a relatively cramped space for 1-26 hours while your ears pop and you can't see where you're going. Other than having additional space to be miserable in (which is a major bonus), you'll experience the same sensations you otherwise would if you were sitting in coach. NM the fact that you could have driven there in the same amount of time. And had your own transpo when you got there.

Only fly 1st class overseas. However I have flown United and it is my least fave. Good luck.

never flown first class...but have recieved plenty of snooty looks as I walk on past to coach.

First class rules. Right when you sit down, they will get you a drink while the rubes in back try to find a place to put there bags because they are too cheap to check them.
Next, they will take your order for lunch/dinner with white cloth napkins and glass glasses. Call ahead and get a kosher meal, much better tasting. All the drinks you want without waiting. Be sure to alert the flight attendant if you see someone from the back come up and use your lavatory. :nono:
After lunch/dinner you will get a hot moist towel to spif up your hands and face, then order a nice latte and relax during the movie.

how does an airport layover'r make it obvious he/she is a first class'er?

you could print a tshirt saying "this guy is flying first class" w/ arrow pointing to your face.

most likely would notice the general malaise and boredom shown by someone who just isn't impressed with the first class experience, since they do it all. of. the. time. this ain't their first rodeo.

Don't really see the point in flying first class unless it's overnight. Then you get the larger, fully-flat seats to sleep in. Also, they let you sleep in later than the commoners -- because they have to start serving breakfast sooner to make it through the larger cabin -- which always cracks me up for some reason.
I mean the free champagne and stewardess sex for first-classers is nice, but it's the seats that make the difference, IMO.

Just a thought, but now that Mangino looks to be out of work and have lots of time off, there is a chance he will get a seat next to me on a flight.:fatgino: :ohno:

Flew first class to from San Juan. Very elite. drank lots. Though the pasta and shells entree was not the best.

I would probably just start asking random well-dressed people who walk by, "Excuse me, sir/madam. I'll take that scotch whenever you're ready."

Thanks fellas ;)
