I’ll bite, I want to know that the folks in charge have a plan too.

I’d like to believe they have a short term plan to continue to grow the enterprise during the Max grounding. I’d like to believe they have a plan B in the event the Max never comes back. I’d like to believe that we will be appropriately manned if/when the Max returns to service. I hope that none of these plans include a merger or acquisition.

I don’t think it’s unreasonable to discuss what the plan is. Right now we are dead in the water, unable to grow and unable to continue fleet replacement.

Just because he doesn’t work for WN, doesn’t make his thoughts on the topic any less valid. I am a lifelong avgeek long before being an avgeek was cool and I have engaged in similar discussions about dozens of airlines that I’ve never worked for.

These are questions worth asking whether you work at WN or not.
