I just saw that there is another 700 hrs. decrease in block hours in December for CVG. Shouldn't it be picking up for the holidays?!? Gotta love it

With A.E. going down to 400/50, I can't help but wonder if Comair is about to do the same.

JFK got an increase of 300 hours or so. Captain bid packets were out in ops last night, posted on epic today. FO packets are nowhere to be found and were supposed to be out at noon today, as per our contract. But then again, why not just let the bid packets come out the 22nd and post bid results on the 30th? Seemed to work last month.

EDIT: Forgot to mention the bid packet I read last night said something along the lines of large upgrades beginning in march due to "recruitment effort improving".

I know they are having a very hard time staffing the training classes. We are still losing a lot of captains every month. I'm not sure when this will really trickle down to the FO level as we are over staffed (at least at JFK) but tough times are ahead for staffing.

CRF bid pack is coming out on Nov 8th,
Something to do with ALPA Scheduling committee. They like to separate the FO CA BID packets. (I guess they get more time off by doing so). I thought by closing MCO and GSO they transfer the flying to CVG and JFK??!!

The word "large" was never used in the bid packet.


Lets hear it for misinformation!
