But it’s not really true growth for us. Not without the hiring of pilots. 24 new crew positions will have to be filled from somewhere. So that means siphoning off from other bases. This is a lot like the “growth” we experienced when they converted the 80s from 150 to 166 seats. On paper we were growing, but for us it was stagnant.
