I wouldn't put anything past em, but it looks like they "might" have to send some new hires to the ER again. From my math:
ATL - 36
DTW - 25
LAX 0
MSP - 25
NYC -32
SEA 0
SLC 0
They said that they weren't going to backfill up to a combined 30 spots in DTW & MSP, but it looks like they got -50 there.
So, we look to be down 88 spots system wide after that if that's all the bodies they wanted off the fleet. Just depends on how tight they want to run it I guess.

From: No longer MEM or 9, but still a guy.
As far as this AE goes for ATL320B they had posted 15 openings, 10 people bid off, and 10 were backfilled. Net gain of 0 positions. Does this mean that the 15 positions are now available as new hire positions?

Time will tell what's going to happen, but I don't consider flying the whale a litmus test. It's a beautiful plane in DAL colors, no doubt. Hopefully (because I have no other power) it will be replaced by the 777. Now if you want to talk about how I got screwed in the merger, that's a hole nutha thing.

It sure ain't gonna' help!
I guess now we know why they haven't replaced the 17+ ATL 777 Capts. who have retired in the last 18mo. They'll have PLENTY 747 displacements coming in Jan, no doubt!
I wouldn't want to be the plug on it today, they are toast.

I'm about half way up in ATL, I guess it'll depend on how many retire, vs. displace into the DTW 777, vs. displace into the ATL 777.
