I prefer coach during regulation to first class now.

  Are you referring to the "first-class" cabin on the vast majority of domestic flights? OK, maybe. Bin space used to be plentiful in the back, so I'll give you that. And maybe you're checking bags. But here are some things you're missing out on in coach in 1980 that you get up front today: - You're first-on. - Drinks before takeoff (it doesn't have to be the champagne that comes by on the tray, you can ask for anything). - Followed by a real service: drinks, appetizers, entree, dessert. - Pillows and blankets that are actually comfortable. More than you'll know what to do with. - Amenity kit, robe, slippers. - A smoke-free environment. - The brass ring, a 100% lie-flat bed surrounded by a privacy partition. - You're first-off.

    This is all just my preference and opinion. Smoking likely would have been banned eventually under regulation. I think the smoking issue is orthogonal to the discussion. Your other points stand and I was thinking only about domestic flights when I made my comment.
