Well, in my experience, it's pretty bad. Even a 3 hour flight from Seattle to Los Angeles on Virgin America's new fleet of Airbus planes are a pain in the ass (pun intended.) The seats are so stiff and upright, I'd much rather sit on a concrete block, nevermind a flight to Asia.

On long-haul flights, I usually knock myself out with some Gravol. I can't stand crying babies and whiney children. I'll go out of my way to do business with an airline with an updated Boeing fleet or for shorthaul, my favourite is the Embraer E90.
