On the Flight webpage it's been on the flight schedule for the last 2 yrs with a 30+ hr HRL layover. Flt 315

Im gonna level with you- I have no idea what you're talking about. I can tell you I have done cvg-hrl-mmmy and laid over in MMMY well over a dozen times and cvg-iah-hrl is a brand new flight that no one has seen until this bid period. (It may have happened a few times in April, I dunno). There hasn't been any ABX layover in HRL in years, except a few peak season oddities as add ons.

You nailed it...you dunno! The letter says...In addition, aircraft 787AX will be redeployed to DHL Middle East service after its upcoming C-check starting on June 4. As a result, ABX will discontinue operating the 518/118 IAH-MSY route. The last operation is currently planned to be Friday, June 1, after which another carrier will operate the route. The day 6 CVG-IAH-HRL & day 7 HRL-CVG routes 315/316 will continue to operate as normal.....key words...operate as normal. I personally have flown this trip 4 times over a 6 month period.

Ok... Cool? What is your point? We are losing planes and losing flights. I really don't care about the specifics of the routes. I've never come across iah-hrl.. is it a 1 day a week thing or something?

Edit: ok I went and looked, its a weekend run. I've never done it or noticed it. I apologize, it doesn't affect the MMMY run for now. I was mistaken. Still losing planes and routes...

My point? I thought maybe you wanted to know what actually is going on instead of made up incorrect s#!t . You know for planning purposes...

Woog, I understand you on this. I only counted the HRL layover twice in April and next month I think its 3 or 4 weekends it will operate. I noticed a couple things about this trip. On the flight schedule, it doesn't give the frequency over a month. Perhaps it just varies month to month? But this trip doesn't pop up in open time very often. So my exposure to this trip is relatively new. It hides very well on the bid too.

I heard someone on reserve get this trip, but it was probably 6 months ago. Even if this has been on the flight dept site for 2 years, no one talks about overnighting in HRL...hardly ever.

But I think we should all just drop this. Cool, HRL is a layover. We'll get the word out. LOL! MMMY...anything could be possible at this point. $&%# we lost EWR!!! Come on, right!

The real point is that in 2014 ABX had 36-767's. After losing 2 more the final count will be 24. Ops specs D085. Then what happens when NAC gets up and going in MIA and LAX?
