Is there a way to say before pay cuts and ALV reductions the company has to try to... actually sell tickets?
i just had a delta pilot tell me he had to buy tickets on American for a family reunion in July.
just a thought.
and 7912 is my guess on junior A

As to your other point, I hope we fix this revenue problem ASAP. I had the exact same experience where AA got a family member's $$ because Delta.com offered no option. Ed keeps harping that this is a revenue problem. Well....let's get some revenue. If only we had dropped some $$ into Delta IT before borrowing against credit facilities to fund some of the infamous stock buybacks. Good luck to us all.

Wasn't intended as a joke, and not how you get that suggestion from my post. What I'm saying is that, rather than this bid being used simply to position staffing for summer 2022, perhaps they are displacing more than is needed with the goal of converting thousands of pilots to lower-paying positions with no intention of actually training them. Then, when demand rebounds, run another AE and then train pilots where they are needed. Pure speculation, that's all.

My bad! I wasn't suggesting your post was a joke. I was saying this situation would be funny if it was us complaining about the company sharpshooting the PWA, when we do it all the time. It's only humorous absent the carnage.

I had to go 1 over Karnak but stay within the rumored and widely texted 7900 A, and pass it off as my own insider guess. 
i watched a lot of Price is Right as a kid at grandmas during the summer.
i hope they cancel this bid.

So everyone is now immediately in a new category, but no one trains, and they just cancel it at some future point? That's a lot of work for zero result. I doubt anything like that will happen.
I DO see the possibility of follow on AEs cropping up sooner than we have seen in recent years, with the possibility of lots of reinstatements, likely before the reinstated pilots ever even converted or trained.
