From right to left there are two seats, an aisle, four seats, an aisle then three seats, this gives an air of spaciousness.

It is 50 miles an hour faster than other jets, about an hour less in flight time. Despite leaving New York in bad weather some 30 minutes late, due to the volume of traffic, we arâ€" rived in London fairly well on time. ~ Our cabin crew were on board for the first time too and I‘m sure things were a little strange to them, the meal was served a little late and there were one or two criticisms one could make, but the stewards and stewardesess made up for it in courtesy and cheerâ€" fulness. Pan American apologized to the passengers for its shortcomings. It will be a while before everything shakes down but they are working very hard at it. I think the general criticism of this aircraft has been unduly harsh, its good features will no doubt, be written up in due course. As the purser remarked upon arrival in Llondon, "we‘re on time so the Jumbo will not make the headlines today." ~It wus a very rewarding experience to have travelâ€" led on this plane and I look forward to seeing it in Canada in the not to distant future.
