Just a question...

As I never played any major LH airport, I was wondering... Do we get any "too small" with VL a/c (DC-10, A330, 777, etc.) on major routes because the demand is insanely high compared to the size of the frame? Like, idk, a LHR-LAX, for example? Or LHR-SYD?

Thanks!

(bar the 767, that I know about, but is also one of the smallest "modern" VLs)

I don't recall getting any even on 767. I'd say it's next to impossible on the big boy WB's

I think all wide bodies are fine!

Now, A320 family is a completely different story. Pretty ridiculous just how harsh the "too small" is on the A21N considering it carries nearly the same pax as a first gen 762.
