Thanks in advance.
You’ll be a DEC. You’ll be junior for a while. I think most are going to BDL and PVD. They told us no new actual bases planned for 2023 other than PVD but that can change as there’s been talk of LAS or PHX lately. We’re getting 10 more A220s this year. Apparently we’re still short on A220 Captains, mix of attrition and just not very good planning. Yes international flying is planned for the near future. And they want to go ETOPs for the longer international stuff.
