You just can't hire and train people for something you don't have or will get. Comair is not going to hire and pay 300 people to sit on their a$$ for doing nothing, which they are actually already doing in JFK with FOs. I don't believe DL approached Comair and said hire and train so many guys and we WILL give you X amount of flying and more aircraft, especially when DL is trying to cut back on domestic flying. 1) Is there a chance DL take away the 90s from F8 and give them to us? I think there is maybe a 20% chance. 2) We will not get 90s from Pinnacle, they own those airplanes! 3) Apparently the UAL flying was turned down by Comair because of contract length. And like I said on another thread, you will probably see a continued increase in JFK, especially over the summer, as F8 continue to moves out and DL continues to expand internationally out of JFK. And don't even get me started on the upgrades. In the memo they stated they had less attrition than expected. No $hit! Where the hell would people go? Nobody is hiring and parking airplanes. They need to keep those upgrades coming and relieve some of the reserve CAs in JFK, I'm sure we'd all like to take a vacation once in a while.

This is how I feel right now...
