United First Class Home to Denver

And United First Class LAX to Denver

And like an old shoe, it's my usual United 739 from LAX back to Denver.

At T-5 to boarding, this is first time I've ever been #1 in the Group 1 lane.

As we accelerated down runway 25R, this was so cool to have a Kalitta 747 landing beside us on 25L.

I had no idea it was landing and was fortunate to have my iPhone taking a video.  Here is my Instagram video of the cool sequence.

Those of us on the left side got a great view of a gorgeous sunet.

On tonight's flght, United offered pre-select options.  I chose the BBQ Burger.

Despite how gross it looked inside, the BBQ burger was really good.

And the best part of United catering, Eli's chocolate Pie in the Sky.

And back home only 86 hours, 22,000 miles and one hotel room later.   

And one more final Instagram video of my United flight home. 

What a fun trip.  Thanks very much for following along.

Stay tuned for my next adventure in two weeks.  Weekend in Cape Town via Swiss and Lufthansa First Class.
