davemchine, don't know where you're going, but for some trips you might look into Amtrak. Longer times, but more comfortable seating, and you can get up and walk around. On some intercity trains there are also compartments with beds, for a price (maybe comparable to first-class air, maybe even less). You also end up in the center of cities, and not miles away at some distant airport.

Depending on trip distance, Amtrak prices can be up in the airlines' ranges, and you might be using that seat for days and nights.
To compare with the LAX to ATL flights I showed earlier, here's Amtrak Los Angles to Atlanta and back.
It takes three days each way, and note the price to be able to lie down to sleep rather than merely recline.
