Why is this date so important?  Well, it was my first time sitting in first class.  My Dad and I were returning from seeing the World Expo in Brisbane Australia after two weeks.  Our flight out of Sydney on United Airlines had an equipment change from a 747-200 to a 747-SP and because of my Dad’s status, we we’re bumped up to first class.

My Dad kept the menu from our trip in first class and put a travel journal together for me.  I was going through it last night and decided to scan it in.  It was much different flying back then as compared to now.  United Airlines spared no expense to make sure their passengers had the best the friendly skies had to offer.  I just wish I was old enough to enjoy the fantastic wine list!  Click on the image below to view the menu from our flight.
