Ironically, I goofed up and forgot to bid for November. Ironically, I have vacation so it is probably not going to matter much for me.

Just came from a base meeting in ATL. Some things to share from Jim Graham,
Bob Cortelyou and RA.
1. AE in Early JAN.
2. A319 to SLC and MD88/90 to MSP to start about JUN1
3. Atlantic traffic (ASM) down 20% this winter but should recover in Spring
4. End of 3rd QTR have 5.8 B in cash
5. 2010 (ASM) down 3% from 2009
6. 1000 extra pilots but do not "want" to furlough
7. The main goal of the Company over the next 5 yrs is to pay down debt
8. No big A/C order during that time period.
9. All 73's, 75's and 76's to get winglets.
10. A319 and NWA 757 to add 8 seats
11. Live TV on All A/C except MD80 and DC9.
12. JFK. Plan to add jetways at both ends of terminal 4, tear town terminal3 and renovate Term 2 and join it with Term 4. Never been there so I hope that makes sense.
13. Announcement next week about new destinations.

None of this was confindential info.
Hope this is helpful

The news about JFK is huge. Term 4 rocks, 3 is a 1960s nightmare. Reminds me of a flying saucer and the 1960s World Fair every time I taxi past it. Makes a ton of sense to do what they're proposing to do.

Okay, here is the layout.


What do you guys think?
1. Do we keep the flying saucer? Are we required to?
2. If we're knocking down 3 but keep the saucer then gates 4-16 are out but I wonder if they're going to do one side at a time. With Terminal 4 to use I could see how they could get redo 3 without ever losing a gate.
3. When do NWA planes start coming into terminal 2 & 3?

I took 4 pages of notes on Anderson alone at the meeting... very interesting stuff. Cortelyou is always very entertaining.

Was goin to type up the highlights tonight, but I think maddog covered much of it.
