Look at the info, don't listen to naysayers that haven't flown what you're asking about, and decide what is best for you. Then don't look back. It's a great ride either way.

Also, as folks bid off to other equipment, there will have to be backfill to maintain the “~750 crews” goal mentioned in said CR update...I still think its going to be backfilled due to natural attrition for a while...lots of folks in both seats have no seat lock and are waiting their next move via AE...and a handful will hang till the bitter end and wait for the MD (no pun), upgrade, or their own retirement.
