Who do you think are the next to croak and shutter?

That's pretty interesting

How long does that take to make?
Any specific flavor?

idk


I'm just going to do what youtube tells me. But whole process seems to take 8-12 days. First 8 is the actual Kombucha and the other 4 is when you add the flavors to ferment and get the fizzles. I'd do like a ginger/raspberry, lemon/ginger or mint/lime/cucumber

No idea. But Kirby yesterday again made the point that 50 seaters will largely be gone in any scenario after this. So if I was a regional operating 50 seaters exclusivity, I’d be worried.

Will Endeavor be able to cover all of the flying out of ATL when flying picks back up? I know SkyWest still had to cover a lot of the routes for this month.

Have you got a source for that Kirby point? Seems like eliminating 50 seaters would mean walking away from a ton of markets. Unless he expects to resurrect scope expansion. Even if he could have regionals fly an unlimited number of 76 seaters, he would still have to abandon 20-40 % (depends how much travel is down in a year) of the spoke airports that can only support two flights/day of 50s.

I cant see 200s & 145s being dumped unless there are ATRs or much improved surface transportation to replace them. Reduced, but not dumped. I think Kirby is just priming another scope attack.

the source are his statements in various US town hall meetings speaking to pilots and all UA employees - you can find a recording on FT
