Oh and I could about 357 pilots that are no longer on the seniority list.

Wouldn't that be nice! How fast could the slot swap happen and we actually start flying, could it be before summer? Would that stem the outflow of DC9s or would it largely remain connection flying? The reason I ask is because a number of the USAir slots were for smaller cities.

What's the likelihood that I'll see any of those new hire FA's on the 777?:cool:

I would think we would need to hire and Comair might be able to avoid getting decimated as badly as they are. Weren't they supposed to get some of the slot swap flying back when this was initially announced?


Comair has some of the oldest CRJ's in the DCI fleet. They're up for checks, new engines, & costly MX. That & customers hate the CR2's, & DAL no linger wants them. I think the Comair fleet will continue to shrink regardless of the slot swap.

Umm. I don't think we (the Bears) can win without a quarterback.

Or, a pass rush.

Hey newK/Buzz
The winner of this game plays the Cowboys, right?

Ohhhhh well, maybe someday when the Cowboy's owner fires the general manager.

Looks like that decision to not let Favre run your organization turned out to be a good one. ;)

Scambo,
Slots are slots, just because LLC is using them for close in cities doesn't limit where DAL could go with them. That said, I don't see much international traffic coming out of LGA, JFK is the international airport......
