We did burn the money - i.e. we wasted it on something that could have been better served...such as updating flight Ops IT

What a bunch of idiots these people are . I am all for taking care of planet , but some of this stuff is just garbage and it’s all about power and control . A Billion dollars ? What a waste . Maybe Delta should get most of that back cause they parked 600 airplanes then I guess no need for pollution control . Plus the millions of cars currently not driving . What a scam .

they were going to burn it. not gonna spend it on IT or other infrastructure improvements on the flight ops side. Get it? Good grief you are dense.
Also, are you stalking me or are you a bot? Pretty amazing that of all the threads on all the pages of APC, you responded to my original posting < 3 minutes after it went live. So either you are stalking me, or you are a bot.

Scheduling wouldn’t be such a cluster right now if the company had accepted our scheduling committees offer to work side by side with them. But now CS will burn extra cash we don’t have. Oh well, we tried to help...again.
