United LAS-SJU is part of the TPOL Won’t Visit All 50 States And That’s OK Trip Report.
I have no airline status and after flying AA ‘first’ (see AA SJU-MIA-LAS: Borracho in Business (First)), I will reaffirm that I’m fine with it. If you have status on a domestic carrier, chances are that you are flying too much for a thankless job. Chances are that you are a Hyatt Globalist staying too frequently at Hyatt Place. That is not the life.
When I returned from Vegas, I found myself back in peasant class, right where I belong. In fact, I was in the last row of the plane, on a full flight, no less.
While I had no luck going to Vegas, I was pleasantly surprised that my flight to Puerto Rico was almost empty.
Overall
In the US, unless I’m flying lie-flat, I’m fine flying coach.
