I'm hoping for toilet seats that will stand up and a decent cupholder. 40 million just doesn't buy the same luxuries that it used to.

WM,

We were briefed with the same info.

Once MAX is on property, we will not be allowed to fly Classic, NG and MAX in same trip.

Classic flying will be limited to a particular domicile.

Cockpit is a complete overhaul. Overhead, displays, and pedestal all new.

Overhead? Not so much.



Displays? Yes. Pedestal? Nope.

While I was definitely hoping for more improvements, I'm not sure "awful" is accurate.

Thanks for the pics, 4th.

That's disappointing. I was hoping they would leave the '60s legacy stuff behind.

Oh, well. At least it'll be familiar.
