Maybe I would have been more nostalgic if I hadn’t booked a first class award ticket before they swapped aircraft and gave me a $75 credit to alleviate the impending pain and suffering. I’m not sure that was enough.
Oddly I'm able to fit my 22" LuggageWorks Stealth rolling bag in the OH bin of these Q400s.
I for one will definitely miss the complimentary beer and wine onboard these flights but an upside of going all E175 is First Class service.
