Lack of Crew= Canceled Flights?
So..... just curious what has been going on with the beginning of the summer rush and cancelation of flights due to lack of crew? Has this been happening yet, flights being cancelled due to lack of crew? What have you been experiencing at your particular carrier?

Republic was canceling more flights than anyone in the world for a few weeks. BB crawled to the legacies and asked for a reduction in a/c utilization over the summer, equating to about $15M in loss. Now we are canceling significantly less. BUT, as the bottom feeder, with the worst morale and contract, we can't expect to keep up with attrition. Our last class of 8 graduated 1. Meanwhile we've lost 1.3 pilots a day. "God Bless".
