The 320 is definitely a more comfortable plane, agree with you guys on that one. The 320 is really like having a first class seat in coach, much noticeable difference. Boeing hasn't seemed focused on making a little extra leg room or improving the cabin comfort in their designs, and I think that will ultimately hurt us on long-haul flights.
I'm just wondering if the 739 is that much more of a mission capable aircraft from an operational standpoint.
Is it more efficient? Can it carry a heavier load further than the 320?
I plead ignorance on this one, I spend most of my time just trying to figure out what the he11 the vnav is doing on the 88, so there isn't much time for anything else.
