While most Thanksgiving travelers will fight for overhead bins and go hours without a snack or room to stretch their legs, life in first class is stress free. It's always been a special place on the other side of the curtain. Now, it's getting even cushier. U.S. airlines, profitable again after a disastrous decade, are spending almost $2 billion to upgrade amenities for their highest-paying customers.

I fly a fair amount of domestic First, and don't see any sundaes. More often I'm told they have run out of my meal choice. "Enjoy the cereal. The eggs are gone".

Nobody else to blame.
