UA Flat Biz Seat
 
Anyone fly the UA flat biz seat, the ones facing back. What was it like to face backwards? thanks

Never on UA's flat biz seat (fortunately), but several times on BA, and always facing backward. Absolutely can't tell the difference when in-flight. The sensations are reversed on take-off and landing: you're pulled forward on take-off and pushed back into your seat on landing.

Well a bit of a different context, but when we flew on MAC flights in the military, the C5A planes always had seats facing backwards. And no windows! Quite an experience, but after the flight got going it seemed no different really. Except for a sergeant in camouflage walking up and down the aisle distributing snacks from a big cardboard box.
