There was a bit of a training bottleneck, so I wouldn't be surprised if that is what triggered holdbacks, if true.
Oh, I assumed we're short captains. I was told by crew-trac last week that the E-jet is hurting on the captain side. Did not look at the rosters. Was also told that when someone junior is awarded captain. The company will honor the pay. That would be a huge difference from past ways of business. See, we are still wary! Ha
