BB's Travel Policy on Air Kraft

[RobertWeathers]

This was great.

Former New England Patriots defensive lineman Chris Long revealed....Patriots head coach Bill Belichick and his staff sits in coach class on the team’s long charter flights, while veteran and star players enjoy first-class travel on “Air Kraft.” Long said other teams don’t operate under the same in-flight policies, and travel arraignments are one of the factors that affect how players view their respective coaches.

“If the G.O.A.T. is putting players in first class, and he’s sitting in coach, Guy’s got six Super Bowl rings, and he’s … sitting back there in 17C. … Because that’s an easy thing to do, and it just makes sense. Think of all the equity you buy for just going ‘alright, I’ll go comfort-plus.’

I wonder if the plane bathroom is big enough for Andy Reid. He’s peeing but he’s standing outside with the door open aiming at the bowl cos he can’t get inside.

When I seen apictures of that plane they all looked first class but what do I know

That plane is posh.

Long makes it sound they are on a 7am cattle car from BOS to JFK.

From the article, this refers to the charter plane days, before the team bought their own.

Nowadays, all of the Seats are big and comfy.

They had Air Kraft in 2016 but they later changed the seating in the cabin a couple of years ago so coach was more like business class....I think?

It's good to hear BB's attitude and it doesn't surprise me.

But that story is wrong, because it is NOT a description of travel on the Patriots "Air Kraft". If you look at this video, it shows that EVERY seat on that plane is bigger and has more legroom than you would get in "First Class" on a regular flight.

Which is a brilliant move on the Patriots' part.

See my above post. I think they redesigned the interior a couple of years after they bought it

That was a story immediately after they bought it.

Air Kraft is not exactly Southwest or other flying cattle car..

From the Pix I remember it looked like a pretty posh set up and it all looked very comfortable, wide seats with plenty of leg room..

Not surprising, this is the same Belichick that gave up his SB XXXVI hotel room to Lawyer Milloy when he complained his was too small

[FreeTedWilliams]

Lawyer Milloy (I thought it was Rodney) tells a story that he didn’t like his hotel room at the Super bowl, so he complained to BB, BB then gave him his suite (complete with the a treadmill put in the room).

It makes sense if you are all about winning, make sure that the players who have to perform have what they need to be comfortable.

Ok so it makes sense.

What about Trent Brown?

I tried to load a gif but the file was too big. I need to find a way to compress them for uploading.

Hilarious scene.

This is why I love BB. He cares about winning. That’s it. How do I win ? Bam. We’ll do it.

...analysed all crashes since 1971 and found that those in rear seats (behind the wing's trailing edge) were safest – survival rates were 69 per cent as opposed to 56 per cent over the wing and 49 per cent for those at the front of the plane.Mar 28, 2013

Just sayin lol.
