Earnings calls highlights:
- Not hiring pilots for 2020 needs, the year is adequately staffed. Hiring in 2020 for 2021 needs, attrition slightly lower than expected. Back tracked later in the call to say " we're on track". Whatever that means.
- already staffed to fly the 737max
- The airline has been prepaying pension expense, only to stop this quarter, allowing earnings to pop. An analyst caught this and called them on it.
- E190 will be parked at the end of summer
- 737 oasis will be completed April 2021, A321 retrofits done march 2022.
- Only contract they expect to ratify in 2020 is the mechanic service workers.
- Allegedly make money flying transatlantic in the winter for the first time ever. Business class saves the day, economy tickets pricing environment is poor.

Isn't there some solace in the fact that group 2 upgrade time is lower, and someone, say a 4th year pilot, at AA can start earning a lot more than a Delta pilot? How many years of 16% profit sharing does that offset. Has to be a couple at least.
