If we see an order of additional aircraft, I'd wager it comes next month from the Farnborough air show. It'll be more buses if any.

The sky is falling!

But really who cares... Some bids have more, others less. As long as the planes keep coming it'll be a net + as everything averages out.

Well you should care. Either:

A we are not taking the amount of planes we were supposed to or

B. We are and everyone will only have 12 days off and 95 hours.

Either way it's a **** poor job of planning

We are supposed to take 8 more 321's this calendar year. This bid is supposed to cover those airplanes because the training will be completed by December.

Either a supplemental bid will be out in a few weeks, or we are gonna be way understaffed for the holidays.

The next bid comes out when??

You know we're not getting 12 planes by the time this bid takes effect?

I'll be worried if the next bid or two are similar. I'll raise an eyebrow over one bid, I won't spill my Cheerios though.

Unless the new airplanes will replace the aircraft going out for the new interior for the time being.

This is the third bid in a row with minimal upgrades.


We aren't getting 12 but we are getting 8!
