That is only allowed if none of the duty periods of your GS trip fall on X-days. It sounds as though your first duty period is already on an X-day.

The language only says that you can't move an X-day once you're within three days of that X-day. Says nothing about moving an X-day to within three days.

On the lower right side of the home page of deltanet with the latest ops news bites. Marked confident and confidential on every page... haha.

The stuff I posted was just word of mouth lower level rumors... and I didnt see the 321/739 RFP thing in there either. (thanks, t). That's not exactly a positive category replacement for the domestic 767!

There was however a mention of another possible bridge widebody purchase. I have heard that rumor from other sources. It could mean more near term wide bodies.

I think it has to do something with ATL. :confused:

We have applied for both Rio and a second frequency to Sal Paulo. The Sal Paulo service was supposed to start last summer. We were denied the route. We also tried to up guage the current Jfk-Gru route to the 747 and again it was not approved. Routes are awarded by category of aircraft to Brazil.
The second frequency to GRU would have been very good for ER guys because they would have flown both with the 300ER vice the 400 on the one route.

Could, should, would. Hope you're right... otherwise, replacing 767s with 321s/739s? At my seniority level, not really awesome news.

The question was about the flights to Brazil from JFK.
