Though you should be paid the same to fly it.
I'm not sure. I know JB had some problems a couple winters ago. On their transcons they often had to fuel stop in LAS because the headwinds were so strong. But, I think the A319 has a range of just over 3000 NMs. I'm sure configuration will effect the range.
I'm not familiar with the 737-700, but I'm sure the -800 has more range. I know DAL uses them for JFK-SEA. I believe NWA used to do BOS-SEA in the 320, so now I'm just confused, and I don't care anymore.
