New SOC date pushed back to 11-30-11.

What was it before?

11-11-11 I think.

BTW, FUPM biatches.

I knew they wouldnt make it. I doubt they will make the new one.

Does this effect their bonuses?

Like that is surprise. I heard two weeks ago that it had already been pushed to the end of November. Never understood how a year ago the company and the FAA could just agree on a date. Merger integration is a tedious process. How about choosing a general time frame so there is wiggle room for the uncertainties that pop up as the thing moves along?

Yes. It increases their bonuses.

I know it's "apples and oranges".....but SWA looks like they will have SOC in the first quarter of 2012, with SLI. In my opinion...this attempt to cherry pick the cheapest procedure from each airline is just dragging the whole merger out. Wondering if it really saves anything in the long run. As it is now....I'm carrying more confusing paperwork now than I ever have. FUPM
