Highly recomend it to anyone traveling to the states(I&#8217;m like 6&#8217;2 and I had no problem stretching out)!<br \/>\nwhen I awoke I tried to get through the whole of &#8220;National Treasure&#8221; but I ran out of time, I guess I slept too long.<br \/>\nThe flight from San Francisco was great!, Had a good view of the Goldengate Bridge and Alcatraz while lifting off to travel over The Desert towards The Grand Canyon!
