Narrow bodies are significantly slower, and they don’t have crew rest facilities.
Spirit big front seats do not even meet the qualifications for a class 3 rest facility, so we couldn’t do augmented crew even if we wanted to.
Like I said, IF they get XLRs and IF they decide to do those type of routes as 2 pilot long range, fantastic. I don’t have any interest in doing them so one less person fighting against the bots in open time.
I’ll let you get back to spreading banal rumors.

Extra 19 mins in the air on a 8 hour flight...big whoop...you sound like a FA.
And you can go back to telling everyone you are too cool for this “international” flying because it is inferior to what you have done.

That’s a good one! I think like 99% of the rest of our flying you’ll be seeing CI 29-32 for that one. Witt doesn’t play around with his fuel savings.

Except .84 is a normal cruise speed for the 777 and .80 is a high cost index for the 320 series.
The longest 2 man unaugmented crew flight permissible under 117 is 9 hours. The return flight from GIG to MIA is 8:50 on the 777. That’s all the math you need to know sport.
Anyways I’ve had enough debating a theoretical route on a plane we don’t have or have orders for.

You just said that .84 vs what we cruise at is such a belly ache for you. And I’m just saying it’s really not much more.
we are getting 330’s or getting bought by Silver or SWA. That’s what I learned today on apc
