How did we manage to add flying (ORD in DAY) and not add lines? Did the lines just get more efficient? It would appear that way for my base did that happen everywhere?

The lines definitely got better in TYS, imo. Ive noticed quite a few more 23 hour trips. Someone mentioned they were better in CLT too.

Knoxville lost a line for May. Was at 53 lines the last few months, 52 for May.

TYS line 1 has 90+ hours with 16 days off. The next few lines are very similar. Schedules definitely got more efficient.

More efficient across the board is good news, glad to hear it's not just in one base... hopefully that trend continues.

If our staffing issues continue the efficiency will as well. They painted themselves in a corner.

Pretty sure the company made changes since the bid first opened because now CVG is showing up two and CLT only down one. Those are definitely different than when I looked at everything within hours of it opening.

Flow going from 5 to 2 /month for "at least" June and July for "staffing and operational needs of the summer". Looks like I called that one wrong...

I don't know if this means that the 3 /month we're not flowing over the summer are going to be deferred until the end of the year or what. Also, the rumor was they were not going to be taking any over the summer to begin with so maybe looking at it as 2 is better than none is a good thing? Until we have more clarification I don't know what the deal with this is.

We thought they were not going to take flows bc they were not going to hire June and July. Now that they are they should still take 5. It's funny. We are still staffed properly, overstaffed with captains, and hiring is booming again. (They way the company is portraying it anyway). But we can't flow 5 captains a month due to staffing. Lol
Man they waited a long time to put brakes on the flow

Well, the contract says one thing, and the email says another. But like I said, is 2 better than 0 if it doesn't abide by the contract? Interesting prospect.
