I've never done it, but I hear flying first class will accomplish that. I can honestly say that most
civilian aircraft provide nicer treatment than most military aircraft! However, on the trip to
Vietnam, on a civilian aircraft chartered by the military, the treatment was spectacular.
Friendliest stewardesses I've ever seen.


The only time I flew military was Jamaica to Gitmo. You are right, it
was nasty. They treated me like a VIP (IBM contractor) and I got to
fly in a bigger seat behind the cockpit but it was still pretty rough,
It was one of those "Berlin air lift" type planes. (C54)
