The CA I am flying with told me he is getting reimbursed $85 a month for his bus because he doesn't use parking in NY.

No, investors ARE excited by "flat" - it means higher RASM and more profits. Richard and Ed have been banging the "capacity restraint" drum for a while, and Wall Street seems to like it - stock is at a 52 week high once again. It's when airlines flood the market with seats that everyone loses money.
Delta won't comment on a widebody order because if they are making one, they are still discussing it with Airbus or Boeing. Don't want your big suppliers knowing what and why you are doing it. (other than talking points).

RA was pretty coy about the rumored 6b widebody order. He did say with a bit of eybrow and grin that we are always "testing the market"... I suppose that means if somebody is giving airplanes away, we're taking them. But overall he seemed to say that barring that, we'd be fine with what we've got for now. The man sure knows his audience. He never missed a beat.. stockholders, gov't regulators and aircraft manufacturers. All right in the crosshairs.

Anybody remember when the 717's rumor first came out and the company was mum for a long time until it benefited them to dangle the 717 carrot in the "must act now....this offer won't last" mantra which netted them more large RJ's? I'm pretty sure they do have an RFP ongoing but will wait until the time is right to speak of what airplanes "could" be coming if we pilots sign off on (fill in the blank with something lame). We will sell our souls for something the company was planning on doing all along. Some cheerleading from ALPA on the deal that needs to get done "NOW!" False promises of (fill in the blank) and bingo a handful of wide bodies just became available and we skunked what our careers "could have been" once again. We pilots, lead by ALPA not so smart.

Yeah, 3 days are too long actually.
Can you stick around in the 744 until the kids are in high school and are like "dad, you need to go on a trip..."
Carl, fwiw your rumor of 744s got repeated from someone in training.
Want to know another rumor coming out of the school house? 717s will hit the line now in... wait for it... February.
