If DHL want Swift to fly 767s, Swift will fly 767s

I think 767s vía DHL are definitely more realistic

Well, crickets from the company as far as future plans related to staffing, LOAs/furloughs, or even the operation and what contracts are active again or planning on becoming active again. Cuba is obviously at the whims of their government, but the company must know something about the rest of the business, surely it would be nice if JC or BVL would at least keep us updated on what the outlook is moving into the fall. I know it's a big ask by Swift standards.

Lack of communication has been one of my biggest beefs with this management. During these particularily difficult times, they really should be communicating the state of the company to let us know what is going on

What about the western firefighters and anything else I'm not thinking of?
Some colleges will resume, that’s a revenue stream for them. Some schools have cut their season short. Don’t have any info on it yet.
Nhl is restarting for the play offs in YEG and YYZ.
All summer programs are cancelled. So no regular summer flying vex, tony Prague etc.
They are recalling people on leave for August.
Our 4th DHL plane is almost ready to be online.
All casino programs except wendover are running. Light loads in ACY, but IFP and GPT seem to be doing alright.
Miami remains dead.
Little by little it returns. But admin wise still a mess, no communication. Today was the first automated per diem payment for June and it’s messed up as expected.
