Far more important would be the impact on category block hours if we allow a micro base if how the company wants it staffed is true. The model they want is identical to the flight attendant mini bases. A micro base is simply not cost effective under the current contract. You would have to carry far to many reserves. If you did not need reserves now it's a new ball game. Start talking to your reps.
