I would really hate to take away the whole doom and gloom portrait you got going here.....but maybe, just maybe......... the company has communicated block hour reductions in September......because we DON'T have a fall schedule yet??

They are comparing the block hours from last fall to the increase we have this summer. Well of course, we are going to have a massive block hour reduction if we compare it to last September's schedule. We won't know anything until those fall numbers come out. It could be a huge decrease/increase/ stay the same? No one knows. We just have to wait and see what the Fall schedule looks like.

Just my two cents, which isn't really worth much.
