[QUOTE=horrido27;3532699]Just to throw it out there- but..
those 75 replacement 321’s aren’t coming next year. Last word I’ve heard is they are pushed back towards late ‘24.
Hopefully at the next investor conference someone from our leadership gets that question “when are the A321’s coming and are they a direct B757 replacement”?
I still believe that by 2024 we will see an Airbus base at BOS..

Many think that when the company announces the new base(s), they have to happen simultaneously, immediately.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they announced a few with another in the waiting room.. and one opening in the new year, the next one a few months later.

Guess we’ll know soon.

Till then, all we can do is deal with our current bases, contract and fleet!

Always

ps) just to add..

Had SKirby on my flight DFW-ORD two days ago. He came up to the cockpit to chat which was fine. Kept the conversation cordial while wearing my contract first, United next bling. He said 321 NEO summer of 23. WB order pending.

That and 5 bucks gets you a Starbucks in the terminal….

To the question on Bus vice Guppy. Bus all the way. Waited too long to switch back. Granted, seniority plays a role but I usually do 2 legs a day and stay domestic. And the office……priceless.
