Access to open time should be transparent, seniority-based, and limited to the same total time as a regular line + WS (a.k.a. max Pickup).

But nobody said the 300ERs are leaving next month, but at the end of this decade how old would they be on average? (Hint it was posted earlier)
Or put another way, how long are we keeping the 747s?

I couldn't agree more. Swap with Friends sounds like some sort of weird gay porn title, and it should, because you're doing something gay to your friends, and something even gayer to the rest of the pilot group.

I do love the Microsoft Flight Siumlayor 1994 version they use somewhere else
Maybe someone should tell them clip art is out.

They might not profitably fill all of the WBs but they flood the market. It'd be like us putting 757s on wherever JB flies out of BOS. If the goal is to make money then that's probably not a good way to do it; but if the goal is to drive someone out of the market it's not a bad idea.

They spend money on planes they're planning on parking so why not spend money on planes that you'll keep on average 10 years?
Is the roi on an interior overhaul 20 years or no dice?

Are they willing to bleed cash flooding the market as their strangle hold on the price of crude continues to slip? Between what the USA is producing and what Australia recently found one has to wonder if the black gold won't be worth as much to the UAE as it has been in the past.
Its the SWA model, use oil and the government to help you win.

IDK, but you also have to factor in what a 767-300ER can bring in revenue wise vs a DC9-50. There is a huge difference. It may have taken very little to hit the ROI with the DC9s. But like I said, we are comparing a fleet of 17 DC9-50s to 79 B767-300ER/400s. It will likely take many more years to hit the ROI goal for the 767 fleet vs the DC9 fleet.
