And then there's this.
Ebola ruled out as passenger dies on Nigeria flight to JFK | New York Post
Our Government is playing Russian Roulette with the safety of the American people. If this kicks off here it will be like Lord of the Flies in some places.
PS, I have to admit I had to look up who Katniss Everdeen was....

If they can do it, why can't we expect the same?
I don't anticipate any Lord of the Flies situations in the U.S.
* Are they even reporting this over there?

Something to think about with LBP for back half of the seniority list.
I personally have camped out on heavy international for the past 6 years although I could hold narrowbody captain. I plan to stay at least 3 or 4 more years until I can upgrade to 737 or 767 captain.
The difference in money to upgrade to narrowbody captain today is not significant and my QOL is better as a heavy international f/o.
If we go to LBP, senior f/o's will make less and junior captains will make more. That will be enough motivation for me to upgrade. I will make more but take a personal hit to QOL. Pilots junior to me will be delayed from upgrading to captain, because I'll be taking the seat before I would have under the current system.
The unintended consequence may be less choice.

While reducing required pilots, causing further stagnation. Just say no regardless of how much your union hyper sells it as a win or "good trade" in the coming months.
