Nope, they actually fly a 787 with real J.
You may not have enough time to lean the bed back, let alone lie it flat.

Every time you fly into TLV youre practically half way to AMM before they make the turn back to the airport to land.

Lol, why is one of the best F products in the world worth 120k MR? Granted it's more than it used to be but you don't pay YQ anymore and you still get 18 hrs in SQ R. If you don't find it worth it, don't book it....I really don't understand your question.

Coach/JN, gotta love UA IT.
Either way, odds are good that it'll wind up in http://forums.dansdeals.com/index.php?topic=54810.0

Regardless, it's still one of the world's best F products.
