Are you guys going to be getting a lot of premium trips?

It will come soon enough. Myself and a few others i’ve talk to keep getting schedule adjustments denied due to “low coverage”. PDT is setting themselves up for a bad situation this summer with being short staffed. As long as everyone holds for triple, it will happen. It’s either triple, or they will have to break down and hire which apparently they don’t want to do.

Hire? They just keep sending out the 'kick the can' emails. Flushed the pool of the non ATPers and have the rest still treading for a re-interview...

So I'm sure not everyone at PDT is holding out for the AA flow... so what gives? Aren't they aware they will start losing people to LCCs and other places soon? Doesn't make sense to me but I'm on the outside looking in so...
