Long term things will return to normal and the retirements are going to happen regardless. If they relax on scope now it will only serve to lengthen the time you have to stay here.

The airlines are going to get bailouts to get them through this and people will start flying again, they have no other choice. Opinion obviously but it’s what I am sticking too.

is this English?

simple English of the new generation. Got question?

To much time binge watching the office?

So while the original post acknowledges the 150 parked widebodies it ignores the fact they in the same announcement they stated they would be parking 450 mainline aircraft. That’s 300 narrowbodies. Scope will be affected and yes APA will sacrifice the eagles to protect their own before they eat their young.

IDK how up to date the APC profile on AA is, but I don’t even count 150 wide bodies. (It still has the MDs)

I haven’t looked at the APC profile in years, but American has 170 767, 777 and 787 aircraft. 767s will not be returning as well as some early 777-200s

In a message yesterday, Robert Isom stated that as a result of the significant reductions we’ve made to our April schedule, we would be parking approximately 130 of our widebody aircraft and 320 of our narrowbodies. What wasn’t clear in the statement is that the 320 narrowbodies is inclusive of RJs. We are not parking 320 mainline narrowbody planes. Our apologies for any misunderstanding that may have caused.

Based on the current April schedule and considering the 55,000 plus flight cancelled in April so far, we will be flying approximately 450 fewer aircraft across our mainline andregional fleets. However, we are not placing any narrowbody aircraft in storage at this time. Instead, we will be moving those aircraft to various parking locations, so they are available as spares and ready if and when needed.

We take Scope very seriously. Schedule changes – even in these unprecedented times – don’t change that.

What you expect him to say.

it already is an issue. With the max. While this may reset the clock I expect you are right about the mesa crjs because of when the cpa expires.
