I only know Cathay Pacific = CX because I fly with them exclusively when going to Hong Kong. Even though their rates keep going up whilst their in-flight amenities keep getting smaller by the year ( !), the fact that they're from HKG pretty much makes up for it. Eh... actually their Economy seats are quite cramped for a 15-hour long flight; it's really hard to get sleep in them since they only recline a bit. I do know Cathay's been updating their seats quite a bit these past few years, but beyond that I have no clue about other companies.
And it isn't that easy, with what I go through.
The economy meals are still superior to meals on US airlines, which tend to be none.
AA = American Airlines (they have the Cirrus on their 77W) US = US Airways (Being merged into AA)(they have the Cirrus on their A330) DL = Delta (they have the Cirrus on their A330 and 747) AF = Air France (They're putting the Cirrus on their 777 and A380) and QR = Qatar.
Economy is never the way to go if you can afford otherwise. For a 3-4 hour flight, it's bearable, but any longer than that, for someone like me who's 6'3", it's unbearable. I was decent on an AA763 with only 30" of pitch for the 7 hours JFK to BCN, but the 9 hours MAD-MIA was not fun, especially since it was during the day. No breakfast, and barely lunch. At least on the way out we got dinner and breakfast.

Alabama driving instructors. *nods*
Apparently I didn't yield to a white truck even though I was already turning when the truck pulled from it's parking space that was around a corner.
Moral: Never take a driving test in Alabama, specifically Jefferson County.

Well, there you go; you've already made it one & a half years, so just keep thinking about that dream job and good life once you're through!
Blegh, sounds terrible. You're pretty much an entire foot taller than me, so that probably accounts for the need to go business. But transcontinental flights are mighty expensive for someone poor like me. You're talking about $1000+ for economy round trip from LAX to HKG and back during peak season, and I'm talking about prices 4+ years ago. At the rate CX has been increasing its prices, I wouldn't be surprised to see it go north of $2000 today. When business costs 5x as much, I just suck it up for those 15 hours and take Economy. (Not to mention I'm not the one paying for these trips, so I'd be greedy to complain.)

Hope you succeed! I'm one of them 48% "gov'mint leechers", working class and all, so I could literally just get my GED right now, become a police officer, and still have a much more prestigious job and earn much more than my family currently does.
I will
And thank you! Although I am not too far off from being a "gov leech" since my dad gets refunds on his taxes rather than having to pay them
As for you, I do hope you get higher than a GED. I would love to see you succeed in college and have a promising career.

Haha, and thanks! I think my parents would disown me if I just got my GED and get out of high school now.

But... you usually yield when a truck pulls from a parking spot... wut in the heavens...
The reason you yield is because you are on the blind spot of the driver pulling out.

How dare you be LGBT, r00d! Heathen! etc. etc. etc.
Nah, being serious for a moment and leaving the conventional joking attitude for a bit aside, it doesn't matter really. You're a cool guy, and I think it's good you came out to people that you are LGBT. Good job. Now, just be sure to chin up at tell your parents in the future; they'll probably understand.
