The comparison provided used one category that over the two plus years between the months compared had a almost total change in the routes flown and we reduced the ability of the company to cover many early departures with out of base pilots.
Yes, that all had an effect. Effectively optimizing NYC. All those decisions were made to enhance the productivity of the base, do you deny that? The commutability system wide is greatly diminished. NYC is the most drastic example. The facts are undeniable and the decisions were made by management.
