Then there is the fact that the m7 whales are bidding day turns, dropping their entire schedule and filling up without turning a wrench. This likely wasn't accounted for and is likely 5-10% of some categories.
Then of course there is the constant ****ing on our legs because we aren't breaking our backs trying to help them get their MIB
Based on hearing her speak this week, I’d imagine this is correct. She said “I have enough pilots to staff this air line. I don’t have enough pilots to staff this air line with the absence rate and the take rate on slips. Therefore we are hiring 200 a month at least until the end of the year.” She sounded like we’d murdered her dog or something.
Even the high up VPs at Velvet talked about how concerning completion factor was so I’d imagine that HT and RG are in the hot seat right now. Oh well, if they want relief I’ve heard ALPA is taking calls…..
In the meantime I can wait.
23 mil a month for
23m7 is a rather ironic number match.
