Nothing big. DTW 717 way junior. About 10 reinstatements. 2 awards for 73n and 2 for 320. Thats about it.
They are back. You must have scared 'em.

And by "moveup" you mean displacements, right?

Seriously. I'll take this bid over any of the "move up" we've had recently. Moveup?

Further airline shrinkage to date in 2013, based on DOT data:



Among legacy network carriers, only United is shrinking faster than we are.

Spirit is the one operator that is growing.

Guess oil prices were not the driving factor....

Do any of you know if the system is supposed to allow you to swap with someone else that wants your category? I know a bunch of SLC 73N B went to LAX 73N B, so why wouldn't the system allow them to switch with me and come back? I bid from SLC 73NB - LAX73NB with no luck. Wouldn't that be easy for the computer to process?

How long would a bypass returnee be on whatever he/she gets after coming back? Could they get the 717 right out the gate and bid off on the next AE? Looking at SDs stuff the last few weeks it appears that although a lot of the DTW slots weren't filled now, and what was filled was junior, the top of the category could fill with bypass folks and EVENTUALLY some new hires might trickle in to pad the bottom. But not right away. I think the answer is somewhere on APC but its hard to find with all the thread drift (and my thread jumping...)
