I obviously don’t have eyes on 95% of the FO pilot group. I feel like the number of FOs deciding to leave is picking up steam and I imagine will increase the next few months.
Crew Planning has no idea what the true cost of these displacements are.
If you're gonna leave, might as well do it on the front end of them hiring 2k+ this year.
Swapa said planning has no idea, and doesn't even care....not their problem. It's a different silo, so someone else's problem to deal with. One dept doesn't talk to the other and nobody in DAL cares what's going on until it affect them (prob why Elliott stepped in)....by the time the costing gets to the bean counter's desk it's too late....so they tell the CP's to deny hotel rooms instead....like that'll save any $. Deny my contractual hotels and I'll sick click the trip, costing you premium (because I'm gonna elitt the trip for one that's PBR out of spite). This place loves tripping over dollars to pinch pennies...
