I believe that they are going with what they planned for now. (86 Furlough's and 70 downgrades). Any one who commutes to CVG have any advice for commuters?

For starters, be nice to Chautaublic, Freedum, and Pinnacle since they have most of the CVG flying these days?

Already there, in a way. Fleetwise:

We are only 57 % of our 2005 contract size (But that was 4 CEOs ago)
We are only 60% the size of Mesa (same CEO since 1999)
We are only 50% the size of RAH (same CEO since 1999)
We are only 26% the size of SKW/ASA (same CEO since 1975)

On the other hand, we have 66% more CEOs in the last five years than the other three combined!

I don't think we've had a 100% day since the new, new guy started. Somebody needs to crack the whip on this guy.

Why was ng4 all grins in Tuesday's Epic Glamour Shot, but in today's all-new picture he's in a suit and the smile is gone? Rough two days, I guess?

Maybe he's PO'd because he missed FA appreciation week?

Or maybe he just found out that he's the only person in the whole entire company that hasn't earned a 100% completion pin?

...By the way... if you look at that pin real close it says "Drink Your Ovaltine!"

I'm sure the Vage got one... but he got furloughed with the rest of us. Probably better that I didnt get one, I would have most likely stabbed my cat with it thinking about Comair.
