The response you got comes from people with experience. Yes this happens every year or so with varying degrees of severity. This is slightly different because we are dealing with a post covid labor environment that this management group seems to not fully have a handle on. Hopefully they get a handle and yes we had a lot of debt going into covid and picked up a ton more so yes it’s a bit more concerning.

Don’t hold your breath on problems getting fixed. In the past I think they’ve looked at these events as the cost of doing business. Perhaps with our current debt load someone in Miramar thinks that’s eventually these events will cost more than they save. If we have a hurricane in the next few weeks look out we are in for something.

Btw I didn’t see teds interview maybe someone can post it. You know he can’t go on there and say we save X millions of dollars by short staffing and outsourcing that every now and then we know we will have an event that screws all our passengers and costs us millions at the same time but it’s actually a net win for the company. He can’t say that even if it’s true. If you think this is the first you didn’t pay attention before you applied. We didn’t have the same debt load in the previous ones though as stated.
