I have heard Alitalia has the overhead ones on their 777 too. What else do you do in there apart sleeping??? I know if someone attempted to do anything but sleeping or reading here he/she would be shot instantly. I'm beginning to think I'm in the wrong airline
No flushing noise though on our LCR, so maybe it depends on the location of the toilets (but it happened a couple of times in the A340 to hear squeaking noises when someone walked on the escape trap above the Cabin Chief bunk).
But do you manage to sleep without earplugs on the overhead? Are they less noisy apart of the flushing?
