So, sorry if I disagree with you, but there's a lot out of place. And I won't touch the negotiations. No more koolaid for you!
Yep, this goes beyond just "fat and over-hired". These management types are liars and we will never get the real story. Next upgrade class is December at the earliest. They feed us so much bull-******* here... I would not reccommend F9 to anyone right now. I highly doubt we will ever reach their projected growth. Projections from 2 years ago were supposed to be at nearly 80 airplanes...
We are actually losing another 2 in August and will be at 64! This management team is raping this airline for short-term profits because they have no intention to grow it. They will gladly give away an A320 3 years before its lease expiration if they can pocket a few $$.
Projections they fed us just earlier this year had block hours nearly 10,000 hours higher than they are for August. Instead August is a block hour decrease.
They cannot even communicate what is happening. It's just a surprise every month when the bid packs come out. Never mind some of us are trying to plan our lives and are counting on the promised growth.
