Just saying.




Exactly!
SK is a gambler.. it's a known fact (base on an interview he gave last year. About going to Vegas, being thrown out of a casino for card counting [supposedly].. lol).
They had a plan for May based on the world starting to reopen.
They had a plan to try and lower labor costs by ESLR/No Fly Line.
Things changed.
They decided to change the utilization of the fleets.

So they (temporarily) are parking the 756 fleet for a month.
They ACTUALLY did the right thing by fixing the pay for everyone affected by the change in direction.
They could have just as easily flown a handful of routes on the fleet and kept thousands of pilots on the hook.

For once, the 756 fleet is actually getting a good deal.

Think about that for a second. Take off the hatred glasses and realize the sun continues to shine and every day we get one day closer to a cure, a vaccine, re-opening of the World/Economy and some sense of new normal.

Look at the big brain on Motch!! Right there with you, I think the 756 is too big of a workhorse to not keep around with ultra low fuel costs for the near future. I hope I don’t forget how to get to London.
