Someone should point out to the nice lady that going right to a window seat is NOT the pilot panacea it might appear to be.

Due to seniority, hubby goes RIGHT to the bottom of the list in that seat and is junior to lots of other people in more junior seats . .who will . . over time bid over to hubby's seat . .thereby holding him down for a LONG time. Can you spell s-t-a-g-n-a-t-i-o-n? Being junior on any list gives you QOL alright, and it is lousey. The only thing worse is being there forever

If you are interested in QOL. . this is not a good way to go. It would be better to see all the new guys pasted to the bottom of your 727 SO list . . thereby pushing you up so you can hold a decent schedule.
