This is a very helpful article. We are a couple traveling, and reading this makes me lean to bulkhead row 1, but I am worried it will be too loud? Thoughts on that?

I took the very same flight in May 2023, and I agree with everything you wrote. I should just add that the second meal was on the light side, but this is not just on UA but on all airlines flying Westbound over the Atlantic, including to the West coast. And yes, the food on UA and other North American Airlines is not gourmet ; it just makes the job, as the wines are doing ; I am sorry to say that this is more or less the same on mine/our (former) “national”airline, and that the catering on these airlines is far beyond AF’s.

For some reason, you did not review the lounge at BRU (maybe because often done in the past), but if you had done it, probably would you have agreed with me. The common lounge used by UA in terminal B is just sub-par, and PAX who have enough time before flying non-Shengen with a Star Alliance airline should be encouraged to visit instead the SN lounge in terminal A, allowing an extra 15 minutes or so to go from terminal A to B ; even if there are better examples elsewhere, this is the best lounge in BRU and a better way to start your day.

I would NEVER fly on a US Airline.
Just very bad reports including Business Class.

I flew Polaris LAX to Sydney and also from LAX to Tokyo. The pods are super narrow and extend into the seat in front of you. I’m a petite woman and I could barely turn on my side while laying flat. I kept wondering during the flight what a tall or larger person would do! The food was poor leaving from Los Angeles but perhaps it was better being loaded in from Brussels? If you would like to utilize points/miles – it’s insane.. some flights are 400,000 miles/points one way!!! I’m American, have flown United preferentially for years, but would not recommend this airline if you have other choices.
