Oh yeah. Right. Next month for sure. And our partners are noticing. Checks in the mail. We have a seat at the table. 🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂

I said it once, and I am going to say it again. This rumor is a management invention to make those ASA pilots think twice before they leave. Meanwhile people get focus on the rumor instead of inquiring for a new contract.

None of this prevented them from making an announcement before the end of the year. If they were still doing the paperwork and wanted to wait until January to sign everything, they could do that while still telling everyone right the eff now that there would be a buyout and/or investment, with a plan for X compensation and Y career progression.

This is reminding me of the time right after the inauguration when Sean Spicer, Donny's first propaganda minister...I mean press secretary, was asked about Donny's promise to tackle drug prices. He said it was "inoperative". That's what we'll eventually get from ScumWest and United.

Wasn't United supposed to buy us? Sorry, that's inoperative.

Comair II here we come. People are either lazy or in denial. We're like frogs in a pot slowly getting boiled.

Yep. Nothing announced by end of year so you all must be right. It's the end of the company. It's over! Bail now! Good grief people. It's amazing how some of you claim to know everything!

Monument announcement
 
The company call coming up at XJT is going to need to have a monumental announcement to stop the attrition and maintain the fleet. Otherwise they will have to keep parking aircraft.

Too little, way too late IMO. Every FO I have flown with in the last 2 months (except for 1) has interviewed somewhere, about to interview somewhere, has already left, or will be resigning this month after the bonus.

She’s taking on too much water at this point to be saved. (IMO).
