Four 777 & two 767 upgrades awarded today.

Omni is not busier than normal. Covid and attrition has caused an issue with available crews. No expansion planned for the near future and hiring and upgrades are for attrition only.

define normal?

But I agree, I neglected to consider the covid staffing effects. That certainly had more impact. Good catch.

Being at Omni for more than 2 decades allows for more liberty of the word “Normal” than a pilot who has been at Omni a couple of years I guess…so there is my definition.
