“Excuse me, stewardess, I can’t see my TV from over here. Is there a way to move it closer to my seat?”

They really do look pretty awesome. And I wasn’t aware we were going to have the larger “studios” as well.
Very nice.

Now back to complaining about the LOA!

Obviously the company is always thinking about how the pilots will feel when they send out an email, even about Mint Suites.

Mmmm come on. That’s pretty far up there on the shelf of conspiracies. Honestly not sure I have met anyone who is concerned with the seats behind the cockpit door. I had no clue for the longest time we even could get Internet over the water on the refurbished planes. Pretty sure no one cares about a seat they will never sit in.

If they wrote an email saying look at the new cockpit seats and it was one of those suits? And I can slam click from the time I get into the cockpit until the time I get out of the cockpit on day 4? Sign me up. You’ll get a yes vote from me!

as far as seats in the back of the plane? Honestly I think these people a quite a bit smarter than that to think that a suite (that will cost you $100 on myidtravel) is going to convince pilots to vote one way or another?

$5 says that pilots won't be able to use them for crew rest. We will get a cheap, narrow reclining seat and be thankful the regs require that much.

Good idea
