That's hardly a "screeching halt" issue regardless. Non event. Slight reduction in the burnbacks, which might result in a slight reduction of a few people's EPS based bonuses, which they can 100% offset by changing the calculus of aforementioned bonuses. Absolute non event. Only a self immolating stratedgy of spiteful incompetence that sacrifices needed fleet plans to make money long term in exchange for short term burnback bumps (EPS bonus crowd eats first) would be a factor. If they go that route, the tarriffs were never the issue to begin with.

Wrong spot...try “hiring news” thread.

Even if that were true, it would have zero effect on an AE in nov/dec

I can’t figure out why they insist on having big AEs once in a blue moon instead of smaller more regular ones. Seems like it would be easier for everyone involved.

If they have one every 11 months they will, in effect, extend freezes.

365 day bids need to be killed. The cubicle dwellers salivate over sharp shooting a 12 month plan, and it misses the mark bad to horribly every time, without exception.

From what I understand, just prior to start of summer ops Network presented a 3% increase of flying due to MAX grounding to Flight Ops and they accepted. That combined with 3 major IROPS made the summer a real struggle. Going forward all increases more the half a percentage over forecast has to be approved by CEO

Capacity was up 4.5% and that's the Q4, as well as the full year target. Are you saying the original plan was a 1.5% increase?

Capacity refers to seats avail and is mostly used for financial analysis. Network when working with Flight Ops to determine staffing use block hours. It was a 3% increase over the forecast or planned block hours for Summer 2019

Bring the 350 to SLC, we're acclimated here. High altitude & low humidity is called "life" in the Mountain West.
