Specifially, one of the seats in First Class on a Major American Airline (MAA.) Due to the fact that we were flying on the middle day of a three-day weekend, we got to ride up front.
The chairs are wide, deep and extremely cushy ... but what won my heart was the power settings on the chair arm:
1. Massage - deep rollers up and down your upper back
2. Bed - it flattens out to become one - complete with comforter and a big pillow
3. Take-off/landing position -- puts you where you're supposed to be for these events
4. Dining - straight back, feet on the floor (but it doesn't swing your tray out for you.)
Plus! Five more settings for the leg rest, the lumbar region (blows up and deflates to your specific choice) and Recline - various degrees of that.
Alas, the food billed as "Brunch" wasn't all that appealing - especially considering what Civilians have to pay to ride up front.
Blueberry pancakes with fresh berries and maple syrup. This was billed as "an American classic." Where in America might this be, one wonders...
The Santa Fe Breakfast Panini - a flatbread sandwich comprised of: an herbed omelette with Monterey Jack cheese, chorizo-flavoring, sauteed red onions and mushrooms garnished with roast tomato and corn salsa. We both had this and it was good.
Oatmeal - Steel-cut oatmeal garnished with fresh berries and brown sugar.
Breakfast breads -- the scone was a brick of crumbly, sweet bread. Bagels.
Take my word for it -- the chair was better!
