On the 7ER.. nevermind, that's not real widebody flying..right? On the 757 in MSP, #1300 is 45 of 220... That MIGHT hold a line... I dunno.. In DTW. A330 55 of 154. I could go on, but it is obvious to me that you haven't done your homework other than the raw number.



As far as QOL, that is EXACTLY what I am telling you. At the same company, you are right, but you are comparing a number at a pre-merger company, and one at a post-merger company... apples... oranges, even if you refuse to see it. Because you say that you aren't particularly interested in heavy metal, I would bet you could pretty much have any holiday vacation AND summer if you want it. Fly 737 Captain at that seniority, and you can have greenslips out the wazoo. There's your $... the QOL at that point is up to you. The age 65 thing... sorry, can't help you there... I don't like it anymore than you do.



Doesn't make me happy, but I don't care either. You are so myopic in looking at the raw number. Look at just how much MORE widebody flying the merged company has. Especially if you stoop to counting a 767 as widebody flying.
