742dash is correct in that the nature of ACMI/CMI flying can be volatile. In the past we have been told many times that the company is not interested in signing short term deals just to put planes in the sky. We walked away from Emirates for that reason allegedly. This deal, though not short term in totality is potentially very short term for the crews who will be hired to fill it. The escape clause will be used to threaten us should we seek self help, meanwhile the top execs will have trousered millions from the deal on top of the millions they got for the Southern deal. They are all in a position to retire after their mega bonus scheme and we can whistle Dixie!

Bottom line....if you are hired here while we gear up for Amazon, when Bezos tires of us you will be on the street even if you went to the 747.
