They can increase the 76 seaters if they get the 717's, isn't that correct?

Latest from CPO in the northeast... 777 order in the low teens 717s, # to be determined 20% pay raise, quick contract with few rules changes (hence the willingness to work over the last 2 years for LOAs) Increased number of 76 seaters 60-65 medical benefits to encourage retirements nothing stated regarding hiring discuss...(already a huge no vote from me on scope alone) Further scope erosion equals NO on my ballot. |

Yes, but only if they hit a mainline fleet count of 767(I think) AND they must remove 70 seaters in order to do so. The total number of large RJs(51-76 seats) may NOT exceed 255 REGARDLESS of fleet count.
Plus the company already has agreements in place at other airlines to fly those 70 seat birds so not so easy to dump them, just to have to buy a new jet that has 6 more seats.... Not a very good business decision IMHO. |

Just say nope to bad scope.
I say, say yes to Delta!!! As in yes to Delta airplanes, pilots, flight attendants, mechanics, employees and management team for Delta passengers. No more bait and switch when it comes to service providers. |

They get absolutely zero information regarding pending orders and negotiating positions. Wondering why more 777's? Great airplane and I'd love to see them, but what's the need and why not 330's? Is this the beginning of the NRT overfly 'strategy'? |
More 70/76 seaters at DCI = NO vote for me.
