For us crews, the 1.5 liter bottles might not be bad.
I'm no tree-hugger, but those small bottles are unbelievably wasteful. As far as I'm concerned, the F/A can deal with a couple big bottles, even in turbulent skies...their jobs aren't that difficult. My .02 is all.

You can't go much lower "rate" wise, than by giving the flying to a company you own.

I doubt comair will see this flying, but it's good to see Mesa taking a hit.

I heard/saw ASA in Boston today, had no idea they flew in there..does anyone know where they come from in BOS?

Lol... I'm sure this isnt new info for ya, but at Comair, when it comes to FA's you get the standard "3-G's". Few exceptions....

Well you have a few that are hot, but by and LARGE, they do leave lot to be desired, don't forgetabout the psycopaths that are in there, there is a reason pilots don't get involved with F/A's and if they do, the must tread very carefully.

I was under the impression that gargantuan inherently applied to all three as a constant already....
