Maybe we'll see Barry and Jimmy downstairs throwing bags soon.
It has been enjoyable (priceless) seeing the GO trainers that are all mid 40s and amazing physical condition schlepping golf bags in the A320 cargo hold on a hot Denver day !

I can also confirm from the sources. Plan changed last week. We are running a class of 20 in August. Every month for the rest of the year now. Varying slightly in size. Upgrades start in Sept again. Unexpected increase in flying coming soon.

Have you been following all the flying to Cuba we were just awarded? I don't think management thought for a second we'd get so much. Caught them flat footed. Just a guess.

Double the airline, double the profits.
I genuinely hope that I am wrong and that you're right.

They've been pretty short on reserves it seems lately, I've had ten voicemails from scheduling for Junior Assignments in the last 2 weeks and I am not on the volunteer list. They're looking for someone to cover a flight to Chicago tonight and they have no reserves to cover it.

Has to be more than just Cuba. Cuba is only like 6-8 additional flights daily. We always cut flights during fall.

I am getting JA calls daily too. Had 2 in six months and have been getting them frequently for about 2 weeks. I think the company has effectively ****ed off the remainder of the "company supporters" with their last LOA 67 stance. Not a bit surprised or disappointed.

Wow. Denver is looking already starting to look ugly again today. It usually takes until the afternoon for the wheels start flying off the wagon. Have been consistently waiting 30+ minutes for a gate. Almost makes me feel like the company is tanking on purpose.

Yeah, it was over an hour wait this morning at 7:00am. Our gate was open, it just took that long to get rampers. But hey, whatever saves a dime for management's pocket!
