You assume that you need to recall everyone.
Say you got a bus that has 10 drivers and it's heading for a cliff. You have 6 guys who don't want to see the road ends in a cliff, and 4 that do. The 6 don't want to look at the road or even talk about it, because they all say "I'm an excellent driver". The best solution is change out 2 of the drivers, not all 6. And you certainly don't try to move everyone to another bus while your moving, like what the DPA is trying to do. Nu |

No, I wasn't assuming anything. I was being facetious because your previous post was silly.
Tall order there.... Nu |
Heyas,
So is it true that on the first PCS run for the next bid month (0700 on the 20th), that there are no limits on pick-ups and swaps (ALV+15 or line cap)? Nu |

(Obviously if there are fewer ASMS and the same fixed cost then CASM goes up) Here is what we are being asked to do: We should take a hit in pay and seniority progression so stockholders can get a 10% return. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25953519/Casm.jpg http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25953519/return.jpg Cheers George http://www.pitch.com/binary/597a/themoreyouknow.jpg The same network management that runs Delta Connection, runs Delta. At those airlines, negotiations were proceeded by capacity shifts away from the group in negotiations. ALPA never challenged it, but it was in my opinion an illegal form of self help on management's part. There is no reason to expect the same managers would not reach into the same tool bag and use the same leverage on Delta pilots that they have used before in other parts of the Delta system. By making these changes before the official opening of Section 6 it makes the act of self-help less obvious (and more easily defended). That will load us up for 2015, when management will either have to comply with the JV or break it. |

Let me show you some pictures to provide some "color":
http://dl.dropbox.com/u/25953519/cuts.jpg Delta is half of the JV and makes cuts of 11% Total JV cuts add up to 8% 50% of 5% = 2.5% 50% of 11% = 5.5% Total cuts = 2.5% +5.5% = 8% That means the AFKLM/AZ capacity reduction is less than half the size of the hit Delta took. here's what makes it worse: One A380 = 2.5 7ERs That's great when we are adding flights, terrible when we are cutting... Because we cut 5 flights for every two flights they cut. Now lets add it all up: To get the same percentage cut we need to cut 2.5 times the flights of AFKLM/AZ. On top of that, Delta is making twice the capacity cuts compared to AFKLM/AZ. That's the state of our production balance and why we are displacing off of WB international jets. BTW the seat mods account for 2 aircraft a month, not a significant factor at all in terms of total impact on reductions. And side we can't control AFKLM/AZ there is nothing we can do! Unsat! Cheers George |

Right....
That's why Jim Graham's latest letter to the pilot group has "it's all good news" in the closing paragraph. Doom AND gloom...:rolleyes: Show me where that is and I'll happily eat crow. Flowery atta' boys from Flt Ops is just fluff. Even more worrisome is union leaders parroting it. |
And just keeps coming...
Delta Air Lines is to invest $65 million in Aeromexico, as the two SkyTeam airlines reached a tentative agreement for a long-term exclusive commercial alliance Grupo Aeromexico this year will focus most of its planned 10% capacity growth on the Mexican domestic network, a sharp change in tactics from last year when the airline, for the first time, claimed the largest percentage of Mexico’s international supply. The carrier will fuel a 14.5% year-over-year increase in domestic available seat kilometers with the addition of eight Embraer E-190s and the introduction of three E-170s to its fleet. ... That international network will still grow in 2012, although at 6.4% rather than the 33% increase recorded in 2011. To achieve that, Aeromexico is planning new services to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport... ...the carrier’s total fleet size will grow by 10 aircraft in 2012 to 115 aircraft. This in itself marks a near 20% increase from 2010, |
