The 747's were an anachronism.
As usual, Delta is re-fleeting with newer equipment.

... and that's not the only part of the puzzle. Hawaiian is 300% more expensive than it was when I thought the merger made sense, but an airline with cash for stock buy backs at market tops ... well these managers have already demonstrated a proclivity for buying at the top.

Look on the upside, somebody has to drive the new Trainer ship. I know we got sailors out there. Timbo?

I agree this AE was a tempest in a teapot. More big metal retiring - for the most part continued stagnation. What a disappointment.
I really hope ALPA is aggressive on the JV screw-job.
OBTW - Whoever agreed to a three year measurement window with a one year ignore (I mean cure) period should be voted out of office.

I would state that most of the MEC that voted for it is no longer on the MEC, but the IAAC Chair of that time, is now an EA and the MEC does not vote on them, just confirms.

It would be the MEC. Given RA and Company's track record, I would expect that this is a first mover in a series of moves. We reallocate assets etc. I am curious what they are going to announce to the all of the employees shortly. Much of that may be key.

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.
