The daily trip coverages in April and May on the F/O side, domestically, look like summer of 2019 -- and there's still Memorial weekend to come.

Somebody needs to wrangle up all those tigers. It seems they’ve run off into the wild without telling us what they learned.

The VEOP before the MOAD from our perspective and in hindsight was a mistake. If we look at it from managements side, with the information at the time, it was the right move. How better to get a bunch of senior, top pay tier, guys to retire then to displace a bunch of them. It did what they wanted it to, it cut almost 2000 top pay scale pilots and put some lower, less than 12 year pilots, in captain seats.

I still maintain it was not the VEOP after the MOAB, but the furlough games upper management insisted on continuing after 1,806 took the early out.

Had we done MOAD>VEOP> large bid to place all 2,558 back in a category around sept2020, we would likely have finished training that bid in March/April and been in a position to hire earlier this month like UAL

Agreed.

Pretty much the crux of the matter

So here we are now.....a buddy of mine is doing 330B school right now (displaced off the 88). got awarded 7ER A on last bid. So he'll finish 330 school then I guess IOE/TOE, then go to school for the ER. What a thrash. Could have been avoided.

What. A. Waste. Ugh.

​​​​​​​You'll get one in C2025, and you might as well forget any retro.

​​​​​​​Will you still be around for that? Retro is a given, unless of course we all adopt your attitude.

Full retro like last time is not a given.

Keep creating doubt, that'll help. It's a given for me, YMMV.
