Fwiw, given where asm's and block hrs are going, I see this summer being tight even though we are probably overstaffed by upper single digits. (total and my guess is 3% above where the staffing would trigger hiring) My guess is we will hit that magic number in next summer block plan if we add back to Europe and definitely if we add a jet.
