If you thought the NYC -88 category was junior now just wait. With DC-9s it'll be like Delta Express was with 1-2 year captains. Yikes.

And you know what, I will not bid that. That would stink. It is enough of a beating with an FMC.

We are all going to like the routes that are coming out. Get your shots!!!

GOT THIS FROM DELTANET:

Balancing CVG operations to increase profitability
November 12, 2008


We’re planning some additional restructuring to our Cincinnati hub to complement its schedules with operations our other hubs and to improve the station’s overall profitability. We’ll reduce the current seven-bank structure to five starting in January and eliminate some unprofitable late-evening flights.

The changes will improve connecting opportunities and provide 28% more seats per bank compared to the current schedule. There will be some reduction of frequencies, primarily in Delta Connection markets with low local passenger demand. Mainline flying will remain essentially the same, and no changes are planned for CVG’s international schedules.

“We’re taking these steps to strengthen the CVG hub so it is complementary with the rest of the hubs in our network,” said Glen Hauenstein, e.v.p.-Network Planning and Revenue Management. “We remain committed to maintaining all of our hubs as they each will play an important role in our combined network.”

I've heard lots of Africa, a little Europe, and some way South Pacific.

Before merger: "We are committed to all our hubs"
After merger: "We are committed to the CVG hub until next summer"
