Which fleet flies fewer redeyes out of LAX? Are their any general opinions about which is the better aircraft to be on in terms of QOL and pairing quality?

The Airbus isn’t doing any red eyes at the moment. Even when we did as Alaska, at best it was about 3-5 from each base. The Boeing has taken over the bulk of the east coast flying and therefore do lots of redeyes. QOL is going to turn into an A vs B debate which I won’t go into. Paring quality would depend on what you like. Airbus does have 5 day pairings which the Boeing does not. At the moment all Hawaii is Boeing only. The Bus has turned to mostly up/down the west coast with some midcons. All of this is subject to change, standard disclaimer.
