Welcome to 2020, Year of the Cost-Neutral Contract Negotiations.

No more CRJs.
More new 175s.
Possible used CPZ 175s.
No more protected pilots.

Here's to hoping for a higher flow rate and improved reserve rules! Cheers.

Cheers!

And the first quarter that didn’t begin with a vacancy.

Why do you remind me of this unfortunate reality? I worked so hard for my times 😭😭

So someone I know interviewed for the east coast cheif pilot position. They were specifically looking for someone in Miami as they’ll be manning that office. According to them, during the interview process management said Miami will see a significant increase in flying in 2020 and they are prepping now for the growth. Hence the new Miami Cheif pilot position.

Was it the same guy they interviewed for the LAX chief pilot spot?

Not accurate. Miami is set at 50-65 lines for the foreseeable future. It will probably drop when the max comes back.

The 175 will see increased flying in New York, AAG is trying to get single class RJ's out of business markets.

Anyone able to share what seniority number a DCL would need to hold a decent commutable line?

Source?......

I’m just short of three years and can’t hold a line DCL and will be loosing relative seniority at least the next four months so will be over three years to see a line.
