American Airlines 179 New York (JFK) to San Francisco (SFO) Tuesday, July 23rd, 2013 Depart: 10:30am Arrive: 1:45pm Duration: 6h 15m Aircraft: Boeing 767-200 Seat: 3D American currently has their first class cabin on the flagship transcontinental routes (such as LAX-JFK or SFO-JFK) arranged in a 2-1-2 fashion.

Holy shit, a travel blogger who’s writing about Lufthansa in coach?!?? Crazy, right? From reading some blogs, it seems like Lufthansa only has a first class cabin. I flew Lufthansa from Athens to New York JFK, with a layover in Munich (no First Class Terminal either???). And yes, I flew in coach, and it was…
