Actually I do care Eric, but before I make my statement, I am going to preface this with the fact that there is NOTHING I can do to prevent or influence anything that is going on in the hearings and/or negotiations. That being said: I do care since NWA doesn't have anything that is comparable to the 767ER in their fleet; which means that whether we go DOH or relative seniority or alphabetically or by height, narrow body NWA captains will be able to hold widebody international seats whereas they could not before. We can argue till the cows come home about the similarities/differences between the 747-777 and the 330 -767-400. But the fact is that NWA has nothing in the same weight/speed/seat makeup that compares to the 767ER. And frankly all that garbage about "super-premium flying" is laughable at best.. sad at worst. I find it amusing, hence my uber premium comment. It has no substance.
