Default Annual System Bid 8/2021

Annual system bid should be out monday barring no unforeseen technical difficulties. Has anyone heard what the bid looks like? I’m hearing it will be “yuge.”

given how short we are, it has to be huge. Flew with a training department guy— he said huge, as well but didn’t provide details.

I think with the Covid uptick they’ll decide to do a smaller Annual Bid and adjust as needed with Supplementals later on. It’s never as big as your MTP2 instructor says it’ll be.

I don’t think covid up tick derails 2022 staffing issues 3 days before the system bid? Rumor is it’s going to be big. Big is to the imagination of the beholder.

even some of the smartest in the think tank we see on the news say we are only a few weeks away from the “peak”

I truly hope so man. Hoping for the best. I’m still getting over my PTSD from the past year I guess.

I saw something about JetBlue delaying retiring the 190's due to demand. I'd imagine that changes staffing needs?

yah agreed. News off helped me. Or just realizing that they are all doom and gloom.

We’d all be better off if everyone stopped watching the news. It’s a constant cycle of fear and division.

It has changed my life. No CNN/FNC or MSnbc- all manipulative SBs.

If only more people realized these media companies do the exact same thing: they broadcast what some people want to hear, not what they need to know.
