I'm not on the 73. We were discussing it's long range communication equipment over the ocean the other night. Like I said I couldn't recall what we spec'd on the jet when we ordered them

In all seriousness… from what I remember they were originally ordered without SatCom, then maint side was trying to convince money side (Ed) that that was a mistake…. Where it stands now, no clue.

You get to chose your seats DAY ONE when you book your spirit pass. Book it. Then CHOOSE YOUR SEATS. Immediately.

The spirit class "upgrade" will supersede most of the dirt people in back. But there are no guarantees. Gal gets the upgrade if there's only one, because reasons. Negotiate on the day of travel.

Thanks for the info! But how do you select your seats? Checking in through Travelnet? There wasn't an option when booking the tickets.

Edit: nvm just check in on the app. Duh

I'm not sure we know yet - the current 737s have some of all of the above, depending on the ship #.

Sick question: even if you're way below the threshold for verification, is there any benefit to voluntarily giving the CPO a sick note on a sick call?
