IT isn't management. It's IT. They were probably given this vacation project 3 weeks ago with an "oh, by the way." Wait for the Golden Days Off bidding. They'll be told about it after the final vacation bid cycle. No one is responsible for the mess we're in except management. They could hire more IT folks, they could hire more training schedulers, they could hire more pilots. They don't and they won't. They want to project a Cadillac image when they're paying for a Chevy. The deregulation consolidation music has stopped and we've been paired with the crappiest management in the industry.
Then Smisek never should have referred to UCH as "An IT company with wings". He just sullys the reputation of a probably grossly overworked and understaffed IT department.
