Is it true that they issue a mouth guard on check in?

Deck chairs on the wing. They issue aviator goggles and neck scarves, though.

No, below basic economy is NEO. Noncombatant Evacuation Operations in MILSpeak.

Ummmm....I think when you get below basic economy it becomes CEO....Combatant Extraction Operations. The cheaper the fare, the more likely a hockey game is to break out. 😁

The new SLC is optimized for International. Everything else is pretty inconvenient but…I guess we’ll see how well it works out when we have a real international presence. For us.

Can anyone comment on the real world pay and QOL difference between narrowbody A (320/73) and 330 B? Assuming a medium to lower seniority narrowbody Captain could hold somewhere above 50% on the widebody B side, is this a move worth making?

Pay is great, especially GS. Schedule sux, I mean regression of 10+ years sux. Never worked a holiday after the kids were born. Now I'm regretting the upcoming holidays. The oldest only has a few more at home. My scheduling manipulations are coming up short for Thanksgiving, so far. The holiday and surrounding days carve out is tough to overcome in the bottom 50%. MDed on the MOAD was raw, commute, downgrade or upgrade. B=QOL A=$

The thing is, I can hold NB captain with up to about 70% seniority in NYC, DTW, SEA, LAX and ATL but I can't even hold the 330B anywhere. So I think that answers your question.
