How interesting! I've never noticed this. I have been reading two books at a time lately, too, but more along the lines of a classic (say, a Shakespeare play) alongside a modern retelling of the same story. It seems odd that seemingly nonconsequential things (such as business/first class seating) would be changed. My only experience with different versions of the same book happens because ebooks seem to have many more typos or glitches in them, so when I run across one in an ebook, I will search a printed-on-paper book (usually from the library) to see if the ebook's version might be a typo, and most of the time it is. I'm intrigued by your finding.
