Our Vice President of flight ops, Ric Wilson is attempting something new for himself called keeping his trap shut. To that end he won't talk about 40/month flowing until they actually do..January I believe is supposed to be the first month.
In other news, expect a large, very large Captain upgrade bid this week. Larger than what was originally passed on to me even. Another very large one should drop before the end of the year or January at the latest.
But RW also talked about growing envoy as their main goal. How will they grow envoy without metering the flow? Why wouldn't RW come out and say they won't meter if AA wants more? I just find that very hard to believe. This is a guy who last year claimed as if it was fact that we would flow 100 more than we actually did this year. And now instead of being honest about AA's request for 40 he pretends he never heard of it. Growing is bad right now, we don't want growth, we want to flow.
Obviously I hope I am wrong.
