Jeez people, lets hope Kirby doesn’t see this, he’ll think we’re a bunch of dummies. It’s not airplanes, pilots, gate agents, super tugs, lighter choice beef crew meals, etc..Soo, you could cut 2 777-300’s with 350 pax a day each going from EWR-DXB for a 15 hour 6000 mile jaunt and that could be a 1% cut to UAL’s ASM’s..(just an example)..thats only 4 pilots but a whole ******load of ASM’s..
