Cheesh, you guys almost sound as though you believe that there is some logic and advanced planning here. Almost as if Crew resources (CR) were proactive vice reactive.



Wrong - CR has what would normally be a very, very hard to do job, but is now basically an impossible job due to the schizophrenic nature of marketing. IOW all these last minute route/ship/model changes are impossible to keep up with in the best of times. Add to that numerous fleets, huge retirements etc and you can see why what someone in management says today totally earnestly may be 100% incorrect tomorrow.


OBTW - For years I was very critical of this but as long as we are the most profitable passenger airline in the world I must assume that there is some method to the seeming madness.



Plan for the worst and hope for the best.
