Nice! 8,446 miles (7,339NM) is a bit of a journey!

Seems to me that this announcement is a direct result of the TA passage. Not sure if this is manpower positive or negative v.s. the SIN tag out of NRT.

Asian tag flying blows. Hard. Hard on the body, and takes an efficient 3 and turns it into an inefficient 7 day.

XIY sucks. CTU sucks. They are only good if you like 500 rvr due to pollution.

I did it for years, so I'm quite familiar with the tags. If I never go to China again, I'll be thrilled. I'm just wondering how, if at all, doing away with them affects total manpower levels.

It just might. Depends on the block time. Section 5-I-3 just might kick in, however there are several ways to staff it.

The NRT SIN tag is not augmented. Only one Cap and one FO. SFO-SIN will be double augmented 2 Cap 2 FO.
