One Thanksgiving week, HP wanted us to pull 84 pax off A/C 620 because of the load plan. We sent it empty, with only one bag, a bike for a dude racing in PHX that day. We forwarded all the bags on B757 both from DL and AA.

Thank you. I know the CFM-56 engine is great. All of the NWA 320 family had them. I have never work the V2500.
The east planes have cfm's and the west planes have v2500s. The v2500 a5 engines were fine, just the a1 models were trouble.
Now I'm in a world of just cfm-56 until the leap-1b arrives. Good engines, so it's not that bad...
