Underrated, stylish, exhilarating, and a chick magnet?

Yes, exactly:

Overrated, tiny, underwhelming, and made for chicks.

Are we carrying more cargo now? I seem to notice more mail and packages on the preflight and more cargo weight on the WDR. I saw the blurb about cargo in the main cabin of the triple 7s but of course they are going away...

it's amature hour after that flying the A-350 on legs it can't make. Fuel stops and can not carry people and cargo. And I thought we were in the business of making as much revenue per flight as possible.
10/24 correlates to Oct. 350 bid package in regarded to SYD. No sign of JNB yet. Ship numbers 14 & 15 have the range tweak; I believe it’s + 10k lbs. MGTOW and some wing twist that squeezes some efficiency.

Pretty sure ship 13 which is currently in service also has that capability - it has the increased GW and the new winglets.
