In December there were 12 “commutable” trips on the 320 in NYC. Not 12%, but 12 actual trips. When I got the the 320 a couple years ago my seniority could hold 100% commutable. Now I'm just hoping for one end or the other. Also, if you read the Crew Resource news letter they have shifted their language from measuring fully commutable to front end or back end commutability. We no longer have 5 day trips with late sign in and early release. Instead for February we have some ridiculous amount of turns in NYC. And the 320 senior crew planner never writes a single comment in the Crew Resources news letter. All this seems to coincide with the sodomizer coming on line. The -88 was long gone before it happened so can’t use that excuse.
