Been happy with Steve. He is better at bidding than I am, good use of $60.

The A380s load and unload with 2 jet bridges (one for each level). The Q400s use 2 stairs at most outstations that have no jet bridges.
The A380s use 3 jet bridges when they are available, two on the main deck, one on the upper deck. You can see the third one through the glass of the first lower deck jet bridge, where its says HSBC...

read the neo interior design includes DFWLS as standard feature to facilitate deplaning.

United tried that in DEN years back, didn't go so well.

"A recently-installed passenger walkway fell on the wing of a United Airlines airliner parked at gate B-22 at Denver International Airport Friday, damaging the Boeing 757 but causing no injuries."

Though I suppose going with the lowest bidder as all things KDEN does; tends to have consequences.

Default LAX hotels

I’m looking for a hotel near the airport for 1 night for 4 of us. Non revving in the day before a confirmed flight. Any recommendations for a place to stay?

“Near the airport” really narrows it down

I'm being serious, no one gives us deals around LAX. Best bet for cheap is to have wheels and get a hotel away from the airport. Otherwise this is the best.
