Cal EWR-HNL
Question for the CAL EWR pilots;
Looking at the CAL EWR-HNL direct, and noticed roughly the same number of open seats for several days. Is this just coincidence, or do weight restrictions occur on that flight?
My wife and daughter are planning a short trip this week to visit family there, and enjoy some time on the beach.
Thanks in advance, and for any other help.

There are 7 held seats on that flight for crew breaks. 3 for the pilots and 4 for the flight attendants. If there is a seat in Business then the pilots get it for a rest seat and that opens up 3 seats in coach (rare). Good luck, have back ups if you have a schedule to meet.

Hopefully we get you guys a real rest facility with the new contract.

Crew rest on the 737 is a first class seat.
The 777 has rest bunks.

This is the same priority that the "new" United wants in our contract...Economy Plus NOT included.

The 737 rest seat for 8+hr turns is written into the FOM as 1B so that never changes. In an perhaps unrelated note the head negotiator for ALPA was at the time a 737 capt on paper. He was so talented that now days he is a 757 ACP in IAH. He also keeps busy testifying against ALPA in abirtation cases based on vague language that he helped 'craft'.

It's definetly one of the most comical parts of our ludicrous 'but we will go BK if we do not sign NOW' contract '02. This is applicable on the 757/767 only since all 777 have the bunk. There have been fun incidents where sleeping FO's in coach have had passengers place empty beer cans on the tray table and take pictures. Dignity and respect! Work Hard, Fly Right!
