Like mentioned already, reserve time can change. They are finally starting to even out the new hire classes between Bus and E190, for a while the majority were all going to the E-Jet. Obviously a new base could also change things up.

This entire West Coast rumor is a ruse, IMO!
We don't have the infrastructure (gates, aircraft or man power) but we have lots and lots of hope.
I heard a month ago that we picked up some aircraft from China. I asked where is the SEC filing. "Oh we didn't like those aircraft we are now looking at Russia".
I'll believe it when I see it.

I actually don't think your thought process is wrong at all. Those of us who have been here long enough have heard it all.
Having said that, there does seem to be some smoke out there, and I think we have a CEO who's more aggressive than in the past (at least since Dave II anyway).
But being skeptical around this place is healthy, no doubt about it!

I will be flabbergasted as well. All talk/rumor, only action is decreasing ASM growth and deferring aircraft deliveries.
