I just want to know where these extra crew schedulers are, cause they aren’t on the phone during an irop.

It's possible we have more management infrastructure than non-wo's but many of our back office functions are now supported directly by Delta, which is a cost reduction vs non-wholly owns. Without seeing some detailed HR reports I doubt very highly you could make any sort of educated cost comparison. And if you were that adept at analyzing staffing numbers on intuition you wouldn't be a pilot.

As far as IROPs, no carrier in the world has enough personnel on hand to truly handle an IROP. Most opcenters have way too many people on hand during normal ops, and nowhere near enough when things go down, just ask DAL re April of last year. Until we improve our automation or develop faster on demand workforce scalability, that is our reality.

It’s a great operation with some great people, but to think that it would exist as is operating on a FFD budget is either extremely naive or woefully ignorant.
