It’s usually in bed by 11pm to midnight. But a lot of early mornings, so especially if you’re not an east coast guy, it can be bad in that manner. Once you go bus it’s hard to go back to that thing. But, the seniority is comparatively way better, in both seats. The 220 is too new and too small a group to accurately gauge trips and seniority.
A friend of mine who flew the 190 at JB lovingly called it “one giant Bic razor” for the cheap design and plastic used throughout. But it least it has the HUD…..
