Nope, nothing like has ever happened in the history of aviation. It’s been an upward trajectory of massive retirements and fast tracks to legacy widebody and narrow body commands and likely to stay that way for decades to come. Anyone who decides to make a career at a major or LCC is either stupid or bitter because they have DUIs.

Do you even have a tiktok airliner influencer account bro?

Just out of curiosity, when there is SQ in the class drops, usually about how senior do they end up going?

It is interesting how that has changed. 4-5 months ago, it was usually going to the junior peeps. As Tornado said, it has being going senior lately.

BOS SQ is seeing a lot of 4 day trips with day 4 being a DH JFK-BOS which helps juice the credit and give an extra day off (assuming you self DH home on Day 3)

I’ve heard rumors the company wants to build 6day SQ trips, but the CBA doesn’t allow anything beyond 5.

I would do 2 6-days for the month and be done. Doubt that would be able to happen with the credit though.

Yeah, 30hrs each would only bring you to 60, so likely at least one more crappy 3day 15hr trip.
