Aaaaaand we were in the back. This is gonna turn into a mini rant so click the "next' button if you don't wanna hear me moan lol.
It's been since 2003 since I flew us internationally in coach. I was appalled at how basic everything is. It's prolly common to most if not all US carriers, but I swear....charging for cheap earbuds, charging for beer/wine/liquor, no amenity kits of any kind.....just a cheap pillow and a cheap blanket. Also a very minimalist meal, and a flat muffin upon wakeup prior to landing. At least since we've upgraded the entertainment system on all our 330's to the Panasonic system, that part wasn't too bad.
I honestly think, if I'm flying internationally again and I can't get Envoy, I'm going to just get a zed on a real international carrier (non-US registered carrier lol). I was embarrassed for my guest but on the other hand it only cost me 41 bucks to sit in back. Made it up front on the way home tho! Yay!
Btw the hotel was pretty awesome too. About 3 blocks from Bologna metro station, lots of little restaurants and shops around. Room was nice, if small, and service was good.
