does that IFE switch run power to the USBs? I don’t think I’ve looked at that switch since new hire.

I’m betting they have to put them through the heavy maintenance checks to bridge the gap to the max 7(if they ever show up) because we can’t afford to shrink.

FFS, just buy another fleet type already. This is literally one of the most pathetic things I’ve ever witnessed (our company’s commitment to Boeing at all costs).

VSP 2.0 now!!!

Just buy spirit once they’re in chapter 11 and get access to 200 a320s and 100+ orders. Just saw the TikTok post with southwests new seats and they look like spirit seats. The comments are pretty funny.

Fortunately it's a different seat. Spirit is using the Acro Aircraft 6FB, with no recline, no pocket, and the miniature half-tray-table. Totally different from the Recaro seats SWA is using. (It looks like the Recaro BL3710 is the new seat from what I've read.)

Spirit has been putting in the HAECO vector light seats with a full size tray table and the small items storage similar to the RECARO. Just based on that video they look very similar.

Interesting; I've only been on the Spirit planes with the little half-tray seats.
