Class of two 767 new hires starts on the 19th. Maybe there will be more movement soon with the news of the recent interviews to refresh the pool....hoping!! I'm guessing this 'micro-class' is to back-fill for the previously mentioned upgrades?

My best guess would be approximately 75% since the company seems to be more active with seeking out commercial and corporate charters. We have a 777 undergoing a C check with new interior/IFE/crew rest which should help the aircraft be more marketable...at least we hope.

new rest rules start Jan 2014 - where are they going to put the bunkroom in the 767 ? heard maybe just business seats for rest - the 777 is getting a crewbunk room upfront

I guess it depends on which classification rest facility is required. If class-1, then it's gotta be some sort of bunkroom. I know DAL has 767s with bunkrooms down below decks, and I heard that there's an insert that can go between the cockpit and fwd galley, too.

I'm glad they are being proactive and putting them in before it is mandatory. It will make life a little better for the flight deck crews. The FA's are not allowed to use the bunks at all, hope they put something in their contract to get adequate rest facilities.

The first 767 is back online with the crew condo. It is located in the center area between the two aisles at the front bulkhead. There is room inside to change out of your shirt and lay flat on a bunk. It's a bunkbed condo with all the required emergency equipment inside.
