Default 330 to 765

Does anyone have any experience going from the 330 to the 767-400? I’m currently sitting about 95% on 330B, but I would be closer to 50% on the 765. I came to the 330 from the 320, so I have never flown a Boeing. I always told myself I would never leave the bus, but that bump in seniority would be nice. Looking for any input. Thanks

Thanks for the input. That is definitely something to consider. I'll more than likely stay put. With all the growth on the 330 fleet my seniority with increase eventually. I'm just throwing it out there to get input.

Yes, that's uncharted waters for a reason. 330s will keep on coming. 400s forever stuck at 21, or whatever number it is

And yes, you do not want a piece of the first class seat you're supposed to rest on.

The 767-400s never got any kind of rest bunk? Just the business class seat with the curtain?

Correct. With a thick curtain. Class II.

Has anyone heard any rumors about what the outlook is for the 767-400? With only about 20 of them in the fleet you'd think they'd want to start getting rid of them as more and more A330s are delivered.

I was surprised they axed the 777 instead of 765.

They will be around for a while, and Boeing will probably build a 767X to replace them.
