RE: United Airlines New Baggage Policy - HereOnThePrimalEdge - 11-27-2016
While United and American cut back on passenger baggage, seat space, and other amenities, take a look at the personal areas provided for the crew notched into bends and corners of planes used for long haul flights over 10 hours, such as Honolulu to Asia:

I'm glad the flight attendants and especially the pilots have a secluded area to rest for an hour or two, so they can return to their duties functioning at an optimal level. I never realized how nice those areas are.

quote:My sister flies for American Chicago-Beijing, about 14 hours. She says the rest areas on board are comfortable enough to get a good sleep in before going back out to the passenger area. She's home in about 4 days to her place in Boston, but only has to do the trip 3 times a month.
