2 things. FX guys may not block as much as pax guys but if you're out on a trip does it really matter if you're flying or sitting in a hotel? Being away from home is being away from home.
Second, I ferried a plane last night and being able to get up to pee/stretch my legs whenever I wanted on a 4 hour flight was amazing. I think I got up 10 times. It. Was. Awesome.

Just my opinion.

The what-if of losing seniority aside (let's say a person decides that PAX flying just isn't for them), would it negatively affect a person's chances?
