Add in their positive space to work, Delta interview, and all overtime at 150% open time and anything over 85 hours and it’s a no brainer.
They won't. If things get out of control they will just shed less profitable 200 flying. There is lots of at risk stuff or short term contracts that can be terminated on short notice.
