Can you tell us which 777 is not ETOPS on the UAL fleet?

Sure.

Here's the list:


End of list.

(Sorry. This whole thing was an inside joke going back five years ---shortly after the merger--- when there was a rumor floating around certain gullible CAL employees that UAL's 777s were not ETOPS.)

LA is going to have a sharp reduction in 777 flying next summer and an uptic in 787 flying. The 777s are being moved east.

To answer the OPs question, I am in the 15 Sep class, got 737 SFO during the class bid, put in my vacancy bid for LAX and was awarded it during the first week. And there were still unfilled vacancies at LAX, so you should have no trouble getting there.

But otherwise suitable for a pre-red eye nap or a pre-commute midnight nap?

I've actually never used the sleep room...but the room with all the recliners is quite comfortable and it is very dark and quiet.

From a QOL standpoint, given the choices of 73/Bus and LAX/SFO, which would be the best choice to hold a line asap?

For example, would one try for 73 LAX or Airbus SFO? I'd be commuting from SLC, LAX is a slightly easier commute.

Hope my question makes sense!

My guess would be SFO guppy. Big, getting bigger, growing fast.
