The Airbus' were NW airplanes, and had the nicer Telex 750's which are much more comfortable, so they used those vs. buying their own. (that was the one I bought for my personal use).
This I know.
(I've been 88, 76, and 73 as well here) I own a 750 as well for that exact reason, but haven't had to bring it for the last 3.5 years!
I had to use the single cup clarks one time.... what an awful experience. I can't believe the company keeps getting those.
