KJFK to EGGL red eye and suddenly it’s exotic and exciting because…..NAT track I guess?
What does the trip footprint/layover timings/credit look like on the special qual routes anyway?
Yea red eyes suck. I also bid to avoid them. As far as ‘suddenly it’s exotic and exciting’….yea I would say Paris and Rome are different than Cleveland and Dallas.
The current footprint to London sucks. I believe 16ish hours 3 day. That’s why they’re going to new hires.
My point was that it becomes a very large national carrier that serves Europe and Hawaii. Much different than a niche East coast airline that does some Trans Con. If it happens, our contract should reflect what we’d become. I want nothing less than United/Delta/American. Unfortunately your BOD seems determined to get their payout and join Frontier. I guess we’ll have to see what happens with the vote. I hope it’s us but wish y’all well either way.
