As much as I’d prefer tray tables. 321’s are great on paper, though.
While it's not containerised/ULD capable, the MAX, like the 738s presumably will be retrofitted with sliding carpet which does virtually the same thing but still requires some stacking of load but not crawling halfway up the compartment crouched down to stack bags - and yes, with it all outsourced now, methinks the workers comp issue is now 'Problem-belongim-ground-handling-pela'
