All I’m saying is that I wouldn’t leave a green banana in the crew room if I was a new hire

Perhaps, perhaps not. UA and DL had a much larger financial impact for the EU closing due to their strategic partners. Even still, the stock market managed to claw some gains back and the three major airline stocks all closed up. These are good signs for us.

Has any company, regional or major talked about furloughing anyone? Seems that would be suicide in this market once this all passed. I would think a better and more likely solution would be to offer unpaid leave to those that want it, much like Delta has offered. This could solve the problem or at least buy some time.

With their history of treating regionals worse than American and their DGI success rate are you sure about that?

Compass is furloughing. TSA is firing all pilots and closing down.

TSA isn't firing "all" pilots. And them and compass were already letting people go before any of this started. No need to inflate things beyond the truth than they already are.

were you asleep when TSA made their announcement and the reasons for their issue?

if not, why are you pretending they’re related?

The question was “has any company talked about furloughing anyone” and the answer is obviously yes, and recently. You seem feverish.

Both Compass and TSA received reductions from United, so even though they were already reducing flying, the COVID situation is accelerating the process, at TSA new hires were asked to resign, they were not planning on doing so, since they still needed pilots to finish the year and they were counting on attrition to take care of it, but with all the majors stopping new hire clases, then there is less attrition.

Also GoJet received reductions from United and Delta accelerated theirs by one month, an announcement was made to re-run the bids for April to avoid furloughs, also voluntary LOAs are being offered at this time.

This morning I furloughed some of this panic and negativity into the DFW sewer system after breakfast and coffee. Does that count?
