Where is the source on this?
They stop hiring during the holidays so that they can fly. They are ramping back up in Feb. BI starting monthly. This is an annual thing.
Parking planes? You mean the MDs they are phasing out? Being replaced one for one with brand new 767/777.
What and who is your source?
Latest guidance from Purple is 1900 need to be hired, 3-4 year upgrade, they have hired and trained 600 by EOY.
