Yes, I guess the staple would come before the furlough.

A lot of people are going to end up wishing they had signed those ALPA cards.

And a lot of young folks who had multiple CJOs are going to end up wishing they had chosen differently.

Oh APC. We AA pukes get a poll. 62% say its new jets announcement. Then some typical SK d!ck measuring chatter comes up and we end up with us getting stapled, half furloughed, and AA ceases to exist.

Happy Tuesday.

Uninformed spaghetti throw:

Tomorrow - NB seat back IFE and various XLR routes.
Later this year - WB order.
Long shot - West coast base / merger.

OMG I hope we don’t buy NK. I would be so mad at myself for leaving NK.

@f9

I have seen many news articles about SK nothing from AA. which makes sense to me. SK has been throwing money around like a drunken sailor for the better part of five years and put everything on high end international travel. In the meantime AA has been focused on domestic and paying down debt. Kirby's problem is the new DHS guy wants to stop providing CBP services to Airports in Sanctuary Cities. Which puts UA in a Very Bad position. will it happen ? who knows ,but SK had a meeting with DJT. I doubt it was to hear this pitch more likely it was to understand what the fallout would look like and how to mitigate it. From the news stories It sounds to me like SK is running out of juice fast.
