They can probably get away with 2... We can just run "Hot" for some months and if everyone shows up 10-15 early that's like adding 200 pilots to the operation! We can even solve the worlds hunger problems with a few easy steps.

But by no means should you ever do a "flyby"... It probably won't help.

Your peers thank you.

That's a lot of "actionable information"

I think some of you guys are taking this a bit harshly . I ll pick up a trip knowing sure I may be stuck flying it . I have no problem with that . But could I hold out and find something better a day or two later , happens all the time . Although I do have the intention of flying the trips I pick up . That is until someone offers me something that fits my schedule better .



I agree there def is the cartel, they have been causing my flica to be denied for years, every airline has them .

Yeah I tend to agree. Something is cooking, just don't know what it is.

Yep.

Out here in SF right now and the locals are hearing rumors of an SJC base/focus city being announced VERY soon.

Talking about growing it the size of BOS.

Also.....rumors out of LSC is that leadership has decided to bypass on the 321LR....can't get them til 2020 and not convinced the proposed performance will pan out......replacement......330s....

I know, we've heard this before....so take it with a grain of salt, but I guess they're scrambling in Long Island City after this latest change......

Wow.... to all of it. So an increase in the order book announced at Farnborough along with the new focus city? Potentially exciting.

Quick question, does SJC have extra/underutilized gates or terminal area for this expansion to occur? (haven't been in ages, so I have no clue)

Yup, heard this straight from R.H., he also added Airbus wanted an extra $10M per airframe than originally planned. However, A330's weren't part of the conversation.

Avianca and Azul should have some cheap deals on aircraft soon.
