genex,
I think I like the 777 better
Fair enough, but the aircraft an airline operates doesn't really factor into it much for me, as long as it's got at least two shiny jet engines on the wings and made by Airbus or Boeing. What does matter is the conditions under which I'm employed, and the lifestyle that allows me to live. Frankly the JQ agreement doesn't offer a viable long term career path IMHO.
Now your location says "Australia" but you talk about flying over the Arctic? CX perhaps? Commuter? Good luck to you then, but not my cup of tea. Spending any more time on an aeroplane than I absolutely have to doesn't sound like much fun.
Anyway, back to watching the cricket and the storms roll in after a top day at the beach. Enjoy your arctic crossings.
