LX is super tough on their FAs, even long stretches like SIN, where you would get two days rest with LH, LX only give one day rest.

This is correct and LH staff is still complaining.

I heard from somebody fimilar with the situation that one LX aircraft has a problem and they need time to fix it. EWR flight suffers with delays.

The easiest would be to switch the TLV rotation to A321?

That's what happens fairly frequently as well. But I can imagine that it will depend on the load to TLV on that particular day. (not just pax, also freight)

When DXB had the runway maintenance and the tag-on to MCT wasn't flown for a while, DXB was #1 candidate for delays. Seems that's now EWR's job
