3000? Maybe two years ago. My guess is more like 1400.

Forgot where I heard the 3000 number. 1400 to 1500 is probably more realistic.

1400 to 1500 would be noticed like a fart in the wind in the national unemployment numbers.

Word on the street in the crewroom. Announcement at 830 am tomorrow. Base managers just got out of a meeting and they didn't look too happy.

0830?!?!?....

That totally goes against their wussy ways to give those at end of closing on fridays and then run to their cars.
Let us know if you see armed guards around. That'll be a good indication it ain't gonna be pretty news.

So i heard extra security ordered at the GO and the terminal tomorrow...any truth to this?

Also a friend who is a million miler got a text on his phone that said if you have a flight on OH connection in the coming weeks check your flight before coming.

Wish you guys the best over there whatever the outcome of tonights meeting is.

Comair is still a pretty awesome airline.

It's the orders coming from ATL that makes it suck a$$.
