It sounds like they are playing so close to the staffing margins that a Feb increased ALV may have impacted the summer ops slightly. (TLV impact maybe? but I’m not a expert in these black arts.)

Another great QOL improvement driven by our staffing shortages...
Blaming the lack of summer vacation on a leap year is insulting. The airline is not staffed properly.
