Hi,
On Virgin Atlantic's 747-400 to/from LHR they have Upper Class ( business) on both the main deck and part of the Upper Deck (2-2) on the Upper Deck. The UD tends to be quieter and has side storage lockers by the window seats so you do not have to put everything under the seat in front of you.
The main deck on Virgin has the beauty therapist and the bar.
I do not mind any Upper Class seat but might go daylight flights on the main deck and overnight flights on the Upper deck ( There are only around 12 UC seats on the UD compared to around 30 on the main deck)
Regards
Gregory

I've sat in the upper level of United ( from Chicago to Honolulu ) and Northwest ( from Minneapolis to Amsterdam ) In both cases I liked it for the same reasons as J Correa who posted earlier. It was easier to sleep up there because there were fewer people moving about.

We flew business on a KLM 747-400. Upper deck. Miles better (in my opinion) than the lower deck, and I went down there to look for some friends who were on the same flight. The upper deck had its own personnel, snack bar, toilets. It was kind of the equivalent to a penthouse suite.
