United First to Paris
 
We are booking our award tickets to Paris in July and was wondering if anyone has used United First to Paris. It is only 15,000 miles more then business class.<BR><BR>Thanks

It is wonderful. Amazing the difference between business and first, enjoy the ride!

I've flown United First Class to Paris, also on frequent flyer miles. My flight from Newark was on a 777. As I recall, the seating is 2-2-2, as opposed to 2-3-2 in Business Class. Compared with Business Class, the seating is a little more spacious and the food options are a little better. However, I didn't find the difference between First and Business to be that great, so since then I've flown Business and saved the extra miles.

We did San Francisco to Paris First Class last year. WOW! The new seats were fantastic and much fun. There is limited seating up there on the 777 so you better book soon. I think there were only two rows where you could sit next to someone. The others were along the side. DO IT!
