Also we're negotiating with Cuba right now World's gonna be a different place soon - you can hang on to the past paradigm or you can embrace a new future. I for one look forward to the new future
An Iran without the ayatollahs and a liberated Cuba. Venezuela coming back to the fold. It's a new time.

I didn't serve My brother did (,F-15E pilot retired after 23 years) believe me heard it all. He also had choice words about Aspin, Perry, Cohen, Panetta, Gates and Hagel.

Crude oil prices roughly at $60/barrel over the past year. Now creeping up to $98/barrel.
Wat mean?
Probably not great.
Future bookings (unknown) drive future hiring.
Any rumors on total pilots being hired this year? That would be a tell.
(On a darker note, “You’re not really an airline pilot until you’ve been divorced once and furloughed twice.” Or is it the other way around?)

/S/ The drawdown could be so severe that with full hiring this year we might see a blue day in ATL320 this summer. /S/

FWIW, United CEO is saying bookings are great:

Of course, I suppose that could be everybody locking in tickets before the price goes up…

I wonder if on a depressing note, with the current trend of people doing buy now pay later options if bookings will stay fine till massive general public bankruptcies.
