The Airbus is a vastly more comfortable and pilot-friendly aircraft if that matters to you.
I’ve been on the 737 for just over a year and can generally hold weekends and holidays off while avoiding redeyes. Overnights are typically short and the Hawaii flying is all 320 these days, though Mexico is relatively common on the 73.. We’ll see what the future holds…
Don’t discount the 7ER which does show up in the drop on occasion.
320s and 319s won't be around forever either. 737MAX order specifically stated replacing the 320s.
