So we I see we have 400 planes parked and we've cut capacity 30% going into the fall. We were overstaffed to begin with and have just shy of 10,000 pilots. (I have no idea how many are out on some sort of leave).
My simple math would indicate we would need to trim the list by 30%ish which would be roughly 3000 pilots. Even with a super sweet VSP, EETO, ETO, etc... I cannot imagine we would get anywhere near that number. Even if we took some sort of concessions (ALV, etc...) how do we not involuntary furloughs later this year?
I am a glass half full guy and an optimistic person overall. However, this is putting a lot of pressure on my positive outlook. What am I missing here? Truck driving school this fall maybe????
