I know that they are reducing some of the B737 EWR flying, if you would, can you show me where the 26% of it was forecasted?? Must have missed that raw number.

Realizing that there are reductions, I find it hard to believe the number was that high when there was a fair amount of Vacancies shifted to IAH on the B737.....obviously the numbers of the IAH vacancies were less than the EWR reductions....but reflecting the 26% that you quote....surprising.

Facts/Figures??
