The cost to cancel would be a drop in the bucket compared to an average daily loss-cost. Welcome to 2020.

All it takes is for the cost to break the contract to be less than the cost of continuing to operate empty flights and they'll do it immediately. I honestly expect it to be announced by next week. I haven't seen any big announcement letter from AA like I have for DL though. Anyone seen anything on their concrete plans to reduce their capacity?

Yeah but 2 days ago all we had to worry about was reduced Delta block hours :/

Mainline guy here...

RUMINT said y’all got a memo that said the breakdown of the 300 airplanes to be parked was 180 across all the DCI carriers and 120 ML....true/false?

Thanks in advance.

Well we only had 12. So that leaves another 168 to be parked.

Thanks in advance.
memo I saw was the other way around. Either way it sucks. But I’ve heard 120 regional jets
