1. So the airline can't make airplanes fly without pilots? good to know.
2. Simple solution. Match 717 pay with 88. Then match 88 with 320. Which then matches 717 with 320. Problem mostly solved.
3. Stop all of the 91% of trips are 4 or 5 day trips.
ATL717
May trips: 82% 4-days and 9% 5-day = 91% >= 4 days
March trips: 84%/10%= 94%
Feb trips: 85%/10% = 95%
Jan trips: 79/09 = 88%
Dec trips: 82/10 = 92%
Nov trips: 80/3 = 83%
Oct trips: 81/10 = 91%
Man, it's so nice to make a post like that and not have an alpabot come and argue with me about it.
I don't think it's the 4-5 day trips (at least in NYC) as much as it is the increase in trips that are non-commutable on both ends and the continual increase in EWR departures.
