We are not certain that these are for both AA/AE, the AE unions are meeting with management as we speak, AA went in the morning and AE is in the afternoon. I can tell you that these numbers are more than likely American alone because on the restructuring website they are showing 400 furloughs at American Airlines (APA). We are still waiting to hear the news on Eagle but we have been told that it probably won't come for a few weeks since what happens at Eagle is dependent on the agreements at AA. And before people say wishful thinking, this has been spelled out by the company and the union over the last few days. The Eagle 1113 won't be available for a while!
