The MAX, like all 737s, is uncomfortable for both pax and pilots relative to the Airbus. Just ask any SWA pilot how his back/azzz feels after 5 years of flying the 737 NG/MAX. It ain’t good.
5 hours? Try nearly 8 hours a day. Ive seen SWA 4 day trips pay 32. The longer this announcement delay goes on I'm starting to think we were or are going to the 737. Mainly so Management can pump it up and dump it on SWA and take a golden bonus as they go out the door!
