On another note, can spouses park in the non-rev parking lot, or do they have to have a emp ID?

[QUOTE=Jetnfast;1939604]Very nice, that's what I figured, thanks for the extra detail. I am sure all the 73N bases will want to get in on the action, it will be interesting to see how crew skeds flesh out the mix, or whether its primarily LAX and SEA guys flying the trips...
I wonder if the trips will be built as 2 leg 3 days worth about 11 hours with the 24 hour layover and red eye home? I hear those aren't too desirable from a pay stand point...
Also, I am guessing the loads will have to be regulated. I am not sure how a fully loaded -900ER will take off out of Kahului/Maui with a 6995' runway and fly for 5.5 hours to the west coast with step climbs along the way. I guess we will start with HNL and go from there.[/QUOTE]
From what I heard the 737s will be replacing the 757s on some but not all of the Hawaii routes. So I would expect to see the 737s starting out with mostly HNL and any other of the longer runway airports - Kona perhaps?

Correct, that is why the company is keeping 75 757's. That leaves them plenty of airframes to handle performance limited routes.

Plan on being punished for insubordination on the AE. I have no knowledge regarding it. A previous Crew Resources update said there would be enough A330 and 777 positions to absorb the 747 displacements but now that we failed to wear our backpacks and eat the crap sandwich our union and management were trying to feed us, I fear this AE will be a punishment. The good thing is that if they try to make it too punitive, it hurts the company too by creating a water fall of training.

New guy here.
What can a first year guy plan to credit on average? I know it varies across fleets, but ball park?
Can reserves Green slip?
Thanks.

What can I say, I'm married to an Italian woman. I know how this can play out.

Well, I didn't at first. But then Mr. Anderson said they where going to cancel the E190/73-900 order [because we didn't vote in the TA]. The 40 737-9's were replacement aircraft anyway. BFD. I agree that it wouldn't make sense to induce the cascade out of spite, but then again, they could post an ugly TA to knock us back on our heels, and then make a few small, positive (for us) adjustments over the next few months to lessen the training impact for them but still have us in a psychological state of uncertainty.
