We're not in a narrow body, but it shouldn't make any difference. We do international and domestic; our company policy is one hour show time for domestic, and two hours for international. However, for a crew that's replacing another crew on the turn, the walk around is quick, and the longest efforts in the cockpit will be loading the flight plan. With canned routes and plans, a fresh airplane that's already in play and ready to go, fueling done, and paperwork waiting to be signed, it really doesn't take long. Weather and flight information is already reviewed prior to coming on board, and a flight can be turned in short order.
