Only thing that really bothers me is waiting for 187 to deplane on the last leg of the day for the short overnight.
It's actually 3218. The 321's we're getting in late 2015 will have 3220 seats. But with us charging more for carry ons than checked, the people stand up, grab their backpack from under the seats and walk off. We can get 218 people off in about 12 minutes. It's amazing to watch, really. Plus, there is always overhead space for commuters.
