you get the picture. I think after SOC and the displacements we're going to see lots of metal moved around which will lead to AE's for the new categories. I think we're going to see movement that would rival that of a 70 year old FA with a case of Fiber One bars.
Hope Im wrong.
True 'nuff. But I bet we also see a large percentage of guys staying in their domicile and swapping equipment, ie, ATL 88 for ATL 320 or 9; MSP 9 for MSP 88, etc. QOL, all other things being remotely equal, always wins out. I don't think a lot of guys are going to commute for the same or similar pay scale. I think we'll see a mass exodus from DTW but there's going to be a lot of DAL guys that want to escape from NYC. That will be the biggest movement. I don't see MSP guys commuting to LAX, or ATL guys falling over themselves to get to SEA. Could be wrong, but that just sounds stupid to me.
