Do NOT give them any ideas.
Besides it'd be much more likely to be E-145.

I'd much rather do California to Hawaii on a new PMCO 787-800 than an ancient PMUA 757-200. Am I completely in the minority here?

I don't know which opinion is the majority, but I prefer the 757 simply for the far more comfortable seats in both Y and F.
