Song failed because it was a low cost airline without low costs. Bad formula.

They could just have DCI do Song flying, evidently we can't touch their casm.

I know it's far per section 1, but if there is a will there is a way.

So what happened to October bid? Did it go the way of the supposed hiring SD intimated for late 2012 if we voted in the contract?

Thanks.
Just saw that on my schedule too. Had three days off and my RAW went down. Must be the "new math."

My friends RAW went down 10 points under the same scenario??

On a side note, I read the CVG synopsis and I thought I read that we will have a surplus of over 1300 pilots for Nov. I think we have covered this and I was wondering if my <9000 pilot predictions is going to happen?? I hope not.

I think something is up with the RAW scores, I think everyone's has gone down. Not sure if intentional or accidental.

Enron's accounting department is on it. Funny, but every answer comes up 79 and your days of availability fit the red eye back to base. Enjoy Mexico City. Please acknowledge via DBMS (click)

Anyone else notice when you are a First Officer and someone refers to you as "Captain" you're about to get hosed?

But the gazillion dollar Madison Avenue hack Ad firm hired to come up with the Song details said it would have a competitive CASM. They even told DL management (for the right price, of course) that if you put more seats in an AC that lowers the CASM. They also (again, for the right price) told DL management that since JB has TV's at every seat, DL/Song can copy their product of they put planes with TV's at every seat on the same routes. Later the experiment was scrubbed, yet called a victory, and managers get bonuses going in and going out. Win-win!
