Both of them are, of course, LCA. There's no-one as non-standard and risk-accepting as an LCA, in my experience.
I remember crossbleed was a bit of a pain on the 737. It was exceedingly rare to fly with someone that did that.
I think these excursions are just proving we should have gotten the 321 and none of the extendo-flufs.

Crossbleed on those is even easier than it is on the 757.
