There's a reason they call it "dozing for dollars...." You make more during your nap than most make in a full days work.

When the kiddos on career day used to ask whether being a pilot is boring, I tell them, " I study, prepare, and remain alert as much as possible on every flight to ensure that every flight is as "boring" as can be!" That is the goal.

We're increasing frequencies to PVG. Also United doubled its flights to TPE and to my knowledge got no pushback from China. Thats why I asked; as if we would be singled out for some reason.

It was asked, and just offered a guess. I don’t think it matters either
