Question about this from Council 1,
"New Aircraft: Delta is pursuing an order for 8–12 wide-body aircraft for delivery starting in 2015. These will be used for flying from West Coast (SEA/LAX) to Asia (HKG, PVG, PEK) with the ability to over-fly NRT/HND."
"Hiring: We anticipate a nominal amount of hiring in 2014; currently estimating 60 per month January–June, then 20 per month."
Are we contemplating not having NRT if we are looking for WBs to overfly it?
If so I hope we get some of these just so we can have as many varied types of WBs as we do NBs
