Same as the last year and the one before that. Just a excuse for understaffing during the summer months, this year will hurt more.

I still think it's BS. We're going to be told in September that the planned reduction in block hours was less than expected. I think it's some CYA so they don't have to pay the cancelled upgrades bypass pay.

Ding ding ding! And at the same time they are using a slow down threat to get lower Q400 rates.

Vote in these low rates or we dont get the Q and things slow down even more.

I do not believe in this slow down.

It makes sense, fall is always that way and with how bad the economy is getting the next 3 years are going to look like the last five. It is hard to admit but managments know how the fall schedules look bwfore anyone.

Those who recently interviewed, did you have the option to teach systems of your choosing or were they picked for you by the HR? By the way are they asking to explain recent multi systems or could it be either single and multi?

FYI my brain is fried preparing for this interview. :rolleyes:
