There are some very senior pilots on the 190 in MCO…even in the right seat that will be causing domino effect displacements system wide. Putting the 220 in MCO would likely attract them without causing a major displacement and the meltdown they saw with LA as MCO pilots deal with flying the 190 for QOL down there.
This is the company’s dilemma.
The need to close mco190 but they can’t spare the training resources to make it happen.
Everything will become much more clear the first week of august.(pending a real resolution on spirit first)

Assuming B6/NK happens they will handle the real fireworks with a MOAB after the SLI is hammered out. Probably see all of the 190 bases officially closed at that point.

This standoff between B6/NK/F9 will definitely effect the August Annual Bid. I would imagine normally they would have the planning numbers all set by now, one month to go.

The August bid is for 2023. I have a hard time believing anything substantial would be affected by acquiring NK in 2023. Would be end of 2023 for DOJ approval and a JCBA, much less a arbitration SLI and merging any part of the operation.
Could be wrong but next year seems irrelevant to B6 staffing with respect to NK.

We already have 4 190’s Parked, that haven’t flown in about a month. They have kept it real quiet about those.
Basically already shrinking the fleet just through natural attrition and less new hire FO’s to the fleet
