I believe they dry lease 16 900s. As to whether AA has any say on the leases and who can operate them no clue. But the new contract also allows AA much more flexibility to pull flying. Up to 10 this summer and I think 10 more in 2022.

The longer I do this job the more I realize how speculative it is and how decisions take time to come to fruition. I feel like that is why we see a lot of strange positioning in hindsight.

I completely agree. In the short time I've been at the airlines it's crazy how any little piece of info can be spun up into "this is happening etc."

There is a lot of speculation and rumor's in this industry.

Why don't you buy American and go Tesla? You'll save even more money in operating costs than a Prius

last I checked the pay rates section of the contract, Chevy Volt is like the top shelf product in the category. Slightly used.

I was joking brother, I couldn’t bring myself to drive a Prius. I have been tossing around the idea of a Model 3 though, especially now that I can download Move B**** by Ludacris and have that as my horn.
