Suffer through coach with dignity {Gadling}

Feb 7th 2009 8:21PM Sounds like you are talking about the typical coach experience on US airlines. Why don't you try out non-US carriers then? I fly to Asia up to a few times a year and always take Asian carriers such as Asiana or Cathay Pacific. Both are rated 5-star carriers and provide a much better experience than their 3-star American counterparts, and at about the same price. Alcohol is free and the IFE is typically AVOD. And even most major European airlines provide far better service than the tired old US legacies.
