Is it class 3 or better in this agreement? I know it's CROT approved only, but the level of my knowledge on a CROT approved rest seat is somewhat limited. The main crux of that my rep said is that it has to be a CROT approved seat.
It's a lot of effort to do domestic turns on those things to just to save 2 hotel rooms in LAX or SFO. The 777 going to LAX goes on to SYD and it wouldn't work... 330 turns are one offs.
The only consistent place we'd see it would be 767ER or 757ER transcon turns and some intra-asia flying where there is currently crazy long layovers.
