I forgot to note the menu, which I normally do, on the flights except the IST-FRA flight. It was the same as pre 9/11. One dinner and a snack on 777 and no meal on the ORD-FRA flight. This flight was a no meal flight even before 9/11 so I know that there was no change on this even though its 4+ hours. The thing that ticked me off about the trip is the fact that UA has Econ+ seating on forward rows of the economy section. But it's so bad even in double seats (I usualy get a window seat). They better do something about. 9 - 10 hrs on 31 inches is not anyone wishes for.
