Not a pilot, just some jerk on the internet. One minor potentially life saving standard protocol is that flights are supposed to stick to certain elevations depending on the direction of travel. Half remembering this, but East flights are to be at odd elevations (31,000; 33,000; etc) while West bound are on evens (32,000; 34,000; etc).
