Two other planes are involved starting from Orlando to Houston to LA, making for a total of a 32 hour flight plan [door to door].
I am sure you know the drill on long flights, making sure you get up walk, stretch, etc .. as well as attempt to adjust to the targeted time zone.

There are some ways around coach sort of like exit row, bulkhead seats and now they have “premium economy “
But it’s still tough flying across the pond

The proposed law is designed to ensure that what have become increasingly cramped planes can be evacuated quickly in an emergency. Current FAA rules require airlines to evacuate in 90 seconds or less.

JetBlue is retrofitting some of its Airbus A320s, taking them from 150 seats to 162. American Airlines, the world's largest carrier, is bumping jets that had 181 or 187 seats up to 190, and jets with 160 seats up to 172.
The “pitch” of the Skyrider seats — the distance between the back of one and the back of the one in front of it — is just 23 inches, reports CNET. The pitch on most commercial economy flights is currently between 28 to 31 inches.
