I would think it is safe since we are about to spend a boatload of $$$ on a new terminal.

Which is interesting since there are 15 7ERB's scheduled to convert INTO SLC between September and November. If they're going to displace down to 76, they'd better get cracking.

BTW the projected SLC 7erb category list for DECEMBER shows a count of 93.


ETA - if you were trying to spread doom and gloom about SLC in order to keep senior people from bidding in then you're right, SLC is in a downward death spiral Stay away, everyone!

The staffing report is the minimum required not the actual staffing numbers.

OK, first, apologize in advance if I'm not getting this stuff.

REG in June, RES in July. Last 5 days off of June, first 10 of July

If I GS a trip that has SPILL in it, Double time in June, single pay over reserve guarantee in June with PB days, correct? (I do understand the trip with trip at the end thing)

Now, If I WS a Spill trip, it's single pay for June, but what happens to pay and the days off that I would be now working on for July? Example: 9 day Asia, 3 days in June (17:00), 6 days in July (40:00) working on 6 normal days off.

Thanks

You must be really really senior to game THAT greenie. As to the WS question, you would be working on your days off with no recovery of them. (to the best of my knowledge)

ANd remember, any credit is not paid until the end, so if it is not a hard time trip, you would be flying a lot of credit for free (basically)

Wolfe: Delta’s move into Boston could ultimately prove good news for JetBlue • 6:49 PM

Delta Air Lines (DAL) last week included Boston in its list of key hubs and markets for the first time, worrying JetBlue (JBLU) investors, but Wolfe Research thinks DAL’s decision could be good news for JBLU, much in the way it ultimately was for Alaska Air (ALK).
Wolfe believes JBLU management seeks a 7% return on investment capital this year, but it does not see it happening under the current strategy; the firm figures DAL's growth into Boston might help to force hard choices, as it did for Alaska Air.
ALK shares fell 26% from peak to trough in May-June 2013 on fears of competitive capacity growth, which led it to take action on fees and resulting in ALK stock gains doubling over the next year.

Yeah, guess green is the only way to go to make it worth while for a long trip. Kinda senior, but they are short in category, so…….

Just like Boston?

Actually T I use this strategy for greenies. I am middle of the pack so I usual bid a schedule that gives me time off at the end of the month. By then all the sr. Guys have gotten their green slips. So far so good I am 8 for 9 the last 9 months. The only month I did not have a green slip was in Jan when I had a big block of days off in the beginning. Caveat is I bid regular lines each month so with reserve your mileage may vary

There overall employee costs are still well below Delta. There CASM on equal sized aircraft is also below Delta. They just don't have the 30% advantage they once had. There are no retirement plans that they could avoid in filing chapter 11 so not a huge gain to be made.
