On the side topic, Can someone explain how to set up flica alerts for the premium folder (MCO). I have been trying, but evidently I am missing something... Thanks in advance

Depends
Are you an FO or CA???

Just kidding

main menu - Select Alerts
Next page select - Add new alert
On the drop down menu select the first item (Alerts from...)
Then set up your alert (self explanatory)

Ill add to that that you might need to be on a computer, I’ve helped a few CAs who couldn’t seem to get the pop up to show up on their phone or iPad.

Okay, that makes sense, you have to have two lines (preferences) to form the one request. Thanks

Needs to be said often and loudly! The most pilot-relevant detail of the XLR transaction.

We’re getting way ahead of ourselves here, but any flight over 9 hours requires an augmented crew which FAR 117 necessitates a class 3 rest facility (seat with at least 40 degrees recline) be available. I could see the XLRs delivered with the first few rows in a configuration similar to what NK currently operates in order to meet this requirement.

The 4,600- 5,400mi range for the XLR is based on a 150 seat configuration. And includes the optional additional fwd center fuel tank. If it’s 230 seats like the 321 is now, we’re adding in around another 16,000ish pounds.. which will bring the range down significantly. Augmented ops would be hours out of reach

Yep. Portland, Maine to LAX will probably be our longest

They are taking about getting up to 240 seats meaning we will be even heavier.

I think we’ll use 220/230. Specifically for Hawaii Europe etc.
