Will the FAs be flying the jets there soon?
100% true. I was there. Not flamebait, trust me. Ask the B6 guys.

Another true fact: A buddy of mine finished up B6 A320 training, and ran into a new-hire B6 F/A. She had been training with my buddy's new-hire class for 4 weeks of F/A initial. She actually said "You mean if I stayed 2 extra weeks, I could be a pilot"?
