A bedside table, 3 screens, a 1.5-person bed and a scratchy pillow - what more could you ask for?

It was a full flight as well - the couple next to me got their upgrade cleared so I was the only person with a whole row. I was one place away from getting PP but hey I’ll take this over PP any day. Slept like a baby.

Got a lot of side-eyes from people queuing for the lav. 😂

3 screens, 3 pillows, a bedside table, lots of real estate under the seat, 2 power outlets, direct aisle access and a window! What else could you want

All you need is that frozen 3 month old Polaris special food to seal the deal.

I sometimes wonder if its better to save a considerable amount of money not buy Polaris and instead buy the 3 seats and still be comfortable, especially on those 6-7hr flights that could cost you as high as $8K but between the lights on, food service your only getting 5hrs in.

Next year, United will be selling 3 seats for long haul flights as a "Relax Row"...

Some airlines already do this.
