Comments on: Whether report http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/doc/2008/07/07/whether-report/ Same old blog, brand new place Sun, 16 Jun 2013 01:16:18 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.4.1 By: Doc Searls http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/doc/2008/07/07/whether-report/comment-page-1/#comment-68641 Doc Searls Tue, 08 Jul 2008 14:55:49 +0000 http://blogs.law.harvard.edu/doc/2008/07/07/whether-report/#comment-68641 The 777s are holding up pretty well, althought there are glitches. The map (showing you where in the world you are) didn't work the last time I flew one from Amsterdam-IAD. It's the 757s that I take from BOS to SFO or BOS-LAX that are getting very run down. In those the TVs are shot and at least a quarter of the headset connections are broken. Last night I took a United Airbus 319 from LAX-BOS, and it was still pretty clean. No complaints, and lots of legroom in Economy Plus, or whatever it's called. So, credit where due. The 777s are holding up pretty well, althought there are glitches.

The last nice one I flew was a 777 to from IAD-Denver about 4 years ago (I think it was one of the newer planes in service). Many of the others I've used lately really do feel kind of dingy.

United had 110ac then switched to the other kind, which hardly work anyway. United is getting as run down as an old bus station. Yeah, I don’t like the lighter system either.

Much easier than the cigarette lighters. British Air has switched to 110v style plugs in their new club world seats. Much easier than the cigarette lighters.
