Comfortable seat. The adjustable headrest really helped (I’m 6’3”). Good view out the window. The power tints on the windows were very useful in blocking the sunlight when I wanted to sleep. The meal service in economy was tasty and filling.

Blankets were too thin and the seatbelts aren’t as long as on some other United planes.
