The reality is that CAL is getting a lot of planes delivered next year, 12 737s. Cross your fingers and there will be some 787s thrown in as well. This is why there is the need. These planes were on order prior to the merger. The sad thing is that some of our 777 orders were converted to 737s. Selling out 767-200 and 737-500s will not give us a total high net gain for 2012. Having to add this on the CAL side is why they are only looking at 200 vice 300 or more
If it was UAL work rules.

Btw..rumor is that mgmt finally stopped pushing for CAL work rules and UALs will be the base to work off. I think we are going to see some JCBA movement happening sooner than later.
