Yes, they are saying that there will be no furloughs this fall. The numbers that they were given are the absolute minimum for flight hours. With those numbers, there would have been 20-30 furloughs most likely. The thing with that is we ALWAYS end up having way more hours than what was initially estimated, hence the scenario of zero furloughs. I don't name people here unless I am dragging them through the mud for stupidity, but two different department heads have said this where I was listening first hand.
Okay I was at the meeting with Bendo today. His words were at this time, we do not know about furloughs in the fall, Delta has not released the fall sced yet, but we do expect a MAJOR pull down in block hours.
Stay tuned. He also said he doesn't expect recalls for a long, long, time.
I appreciated his honesty. It appears that Bendo doesn't know anymore than we do, aside from wait and see.
If you find yourself with other oppurtunities, take it. Comair, well.........
