Awards cancelled at ASA...

What's this mean? Just 10 200 captains, right?

Thus it starts...

Means that they were told by DAL today that they are going to cut some routes.
Word is 4 % DCI and 6% mainline.

 

[CFI2766]

Everyone get comfy in their current seats... (Except those newly upgraded, hired, or awarded)

the sky isnt falling. if attrition continues there will still be hiring, just not as many. this is not necessarily a bad thing - sounded like they were having a hard time filling classes anyway.

Is that rumor of an actual reduction in mainline block hours, or just a shift of the block hours from domestic to intl?

 

[JoeMerchant]

If the rumor is true...so much for the theory that they were going to cut more RJ flying than mainline flying....

See Scott's response to the bid changes. It's not gloom and doom, but it's an eye opener for the near future at ASA.

Did everyone see Brad's report? Delta giving us an additional 4 200s to fly in Florida? Was it additional aircraft or just routes?

 

[McNugent]

It's the beginning of the end for Freedumb. Probably just picking up some of their routes they can't cover. We'll probably have a couple extra 50's around due to route cancellations and reductions to send to FL.

Freedom... All your CRJ 900's are belong to us.
