IF it’s just concerning credit caps and ALV relief then my guess is flat out wrong! IF something crazy has developed where we somehow take someone’s deferred CS300 slots accelerating our deliveries and trashing the 190s quicker, again that will have to be displayed in the system bid because those seats will be anticipated staffing within the next 12 months. Either way, no sense in dedicating too much thought to it, we will know when we know. I’m just spitballing, and before someone counters my logic here I’ll just concede to their point, cause it’s all just a guess on my part.
You are correct, all guessing at this point.
