Just came from a base meeting in ATL. Some things to share from Jim Graham,
Bob Cortelyou and RA.
1. AE in Early JAN.
2. A319 to SLC and MD88/90 to MSP to start about JUN1
3. Atlantic traffic (ASM) down 20% this winter but should recover in Spring
4. End of 3rd QTR have 5.8 B in cash
5. 2010 (ASM) down 3% from 2009
6. 1000 extra pilots but do not "want" to furlough
7. The main goal of the Company over the next 5 yrs is to pay down debt
8. No big A/C order during that time period.
9. All 73's, 75's and 76's to get winglets.
10. A319 and NWA 757 to add 8 seats
11. Live TV on All A/C except MD80 and DC9.
12. JFK. Plan to add jetways at both ends of terminal 4, tear town terminal3 and renovate Term 2 and join it with Term 4. Never been there so I hope that makes sense.
13. Announcement next week about new destinations.

None of this was confindential info.
Hope this is helpful
