I just returned on a flight from San Juan to Orlando and our flight level
was 300, including a portion over the mainland. Since then I've been
listening to my aircraft radio and routinely hear flights assigned FL320,
340, etc.. It was always 2000 feet separation with levels 290, 310, 330,
350, 370, etc. What has changed, and when did it change? Thanks!

Domestic RVSM, Reduced Vertical Separation Minimums, was implemented last
month. Properly equipped airplanes between FL 290 and FL 410 are now
separated by 1000 feet.
