Newhires in the last class at FDX went to the MD11 and A300. This year, people have gone to every airplane, including the 777. Folks that were hired into the 777 last year are holding lines.

This. QOL all depends on the individual of course, but as a guy that really wants to do the widebody flying, it just won't make sense for me for a while. Someday down the road. Trying to enjoy the ride for what it is TODAY.

Reserve fly or reserve sit-at-home? Little of both?
