I don't necessarily agree. I think it may be harder to hold DEN initially, and new FOs may be on Res longer, but newhires will be able to hold DEN eventually. The majority of upgrades in the next two years will be from current DEN FOs. Unless we vastly shrink DEN to say 100 crews, DEN will still be attainable.

Guess you did not get the fapa email where it said den is going to shrink...For 70 departures a day den is well oversized at this point.

I'd say it's why pairings are so unproductive too.

I personally will be shocked to see too many FOs getting into DEN anytime soon. We will see though I guess... Like I said, I may be missing something. The next bid comes out soon. We will see....

Yup... One thing for sure, if you want to be in Denver DO NOT bid out of it. You will likely never get it back.

Congrats and welcome to F9!

I was told "officially" that growth is east of Mississippi river "for now." They weren't letting on to anything.

And thanks!

I got the email...I believe when we get airplanes den will at least be 250-300 crews. I may be wrong, just my opinion. Personally I'd be ok if 100% of the flying was in the east, as I live in MD.
