Reference the 2014 July Crew Resources letter on DLnet. It specifically addresses the DTW717 base and staffing.

** Data referenced from July '14 Crew Resources letter. None of the above is my opinion, other than speculation of "staffing the DTW717 base soon."

The company has repeatedly said they are buffing ATL right now and will soon start growing DTW. No one disputes this and that base is not in danger one bit. In fact there is a 100% chance it will grow. A lot. A whole lot.

I've heard both extremes....closing of DTW 717 to open NYC instead (even though one newsletter explained why the company prefers staffing NYC flying through other bases) & then the next week heard 160 DTW 717 crews starting 2015. Gotta love the rumor mill. Time will tell!

Hey Ghilis,
Do people have the ability to bid out every month, or only when there is a new AE? For instance, I'm assuming NYC MD-88 is remaining a similar size but there have been a lot of people put into that seat. Is that simply b/c people are bidding off monthly, or only when there is an AE? Confused yet? I am. Fingers crossed for NYC or at the very least, an airframe that will get me there!
