Like Damian, I was able to purchase the 50% biz deal from LHR-WAW-ORD round trip and returned yesterday. A disappointment. Found a tired 767 with limited recline seats more suitable for 10 years ago, entry level wines (unless you consider at 4 Euro Sangre de Toro top of the line), unclean (my inbound had a sticky goop in the side pocket), and mediocre service. Did not like boarding from the back of the plane forward, because by the time I arrived at my seat someone had already poached my overhead space.
Was it worth the $1200? Not really.
I did enjoy the Florida Gator decor, however.
