I'm in pretty much the same boat -- 66/176/38 (EQD/EQM/EQS), with a rolling 12 of 89/254/59. By the end of the month I'll add another 18/30/4.

It will be interesting to see how this all plays out.

I'm paid F, so I would add 6 trips a year in if this was the case. The same with ex-LAX. I'm going to B6 for those routes.

The biggest downside of my shift from DL 360 to AA is the quality of the full F product. I'm a tall person but will sacrifice a little legroom for a seat that is fundamentally more comfortable. I...

At least for BOS-LHR we have a bunch of options with BA. I've taken a shine to the 0730 flight, plus seeing a A380 at BOS is cute.
