Ly 747 J. Can get the exit row upstairs. I should take the window or the aisle? Is a different row better?

If you don't plan on getting up much take the window, if you do I would go with the aisle

Thanks! Is there more room to squeeze through without climbing over the next seat cause it's an exit row?

Any seat better than another aside from an odd number on UA 77W polaris? Flying solo

Hi - Flying EWR-TLV with UA in Business Polaris in a couple of days. Anyone have experience with bringing 2 carry-ons? I am only going for a few days, but would need to bring 2 carry-ons to avoid checking luggage. Are they more flexible with business class with regards to carry-ons or will they make us check in our second bags. Thanks

If no personal item they may be more lax on the size.
I brought a large backpack and proper carry on.

My sister flew first class on AA from LAX to IND last week on a nonstop flight, no food or drinks were offered to first class passengers on a close to 5 hour flight, I have not flown domestic first for a while, so they do not serve meals nor drinks?

Flying on the red eye or the morning flight?

3 years ago I flew Y on UA with another passenger flying J. I brought along a Sefer Torah in a small Aron Kodesh (the size of a full size carry on) besides my carry on. They started asking questions so I showed the passenger in J and said it's his and they let it through.

NYC TLV, What J Product to choose?

 TK J JFK IST TLV  Amex > Aeroplan 82K, Never been to the TK IST lounge

or

QR J Qsuites JFK DOH AMM TLV   AA70K

Of-course should UA J open up Polaris EWR TLV  that would be the first option!

its pretty easy to figure out. If you want the better product go for q suites. If you want a normal flight that's not over 24 hours go with TK

QSuites is far better.

Booked IB J MAD-TLV This is what seatguru claims the product is as well as CS said it's a 332.
I'm unable to choose seats online so I can't see for myself, but the CSR said that the seats are C1, A2 etc... like the 333 is configured. CSR was extremely confused whether it is a lie flat or not.
Any way to double check this?
