It's exotic and exiting because it's London and not Pit/Phl/FLL? I don't know....throw in Madrid, Amterdam and Paris and now I think more people would be interested. Also working with a 3 person crew, break, good food and lay flat bed. Not quite the same as just a Lax-Pit run. I'm not saying it's for everyone but it is a bit different than the regular old redeye.

Same as any other US airline flying to Europe. LGW and LHR are treated as separate overnights and have different hotels.

B6 has block or better per leg. So I’d expect that to stick. But no major airline has a min calendar day. Not sure how likely B6/B6NK is to achieve an MCD rig in a CBA/JCBA if nobody else has it. But, rig improvements need to happen (namely 5/day increased), as well as improving QOL items that are negatively affected by increased rigs (namely commutability) that need to be there too. To be clear, I’m not talking specific to Europe flying…I’m more talking about general rules.

That’s all you boys, I’ll slog up and down the east coast during daylight hours. Have a dodgy curry and a warm ale for me!

By East Coast you mean down to Santo Domingo and Port of Spain and daylight hours? Maybe on day 1....after that it'll be WOCL.

Don’t knock that LAX-PIT redeye, once you get to the hotel you got twelve hours to play frogger down a highway and then stuff your face at the Eat’n Park.
