I have no clue on what Delta will do with regional flying and they probably don't yet either, but the International seems to be planned to kick up a notch again from June/July according to this. Obviously it can change in a matter of hours and I have no doubt it will change a bit more before June/July hits, but it's nice to see some sort of improvement.

Semi thread resurrection here. In our latest update from CC, it seems that we’re hoping for the best but preparing for less than optimal conditions. One thing for certain is, OO will be a smaller airline. How much smaller...dunno.

In the SAPA call Aric seemed stumped about this as well. Question remained who will be in that group.

Why would he be stumped? Is he not looking at what is happening? Anyone with a brain doing some critical thinking can tell the short term future for airlines is bleak and no one should be surprised that most airlines will be smaller than before,

I think he was referring to him being stumped about how much smaller. CC gave no specifics.

One thing is for sure. If they don't bring the snack baskets back any time soon, I think we'll all have smaller waistlines than before.

That’s a good thing right? I’ve never seen so many young pilots spilling out of their belts and blowing buttons off, seriously, get a gym pass fellas.

I canceled my membership when I went to training. Between hotel gyms and riding my bike at home, I usually get enough exercise in. I was going to sign up for that plan through Delta in early march but procrastinated. A few weeks later and everything shut down, so I never got around to it. And at the rate things are going, I don't see them opening any time soon. They tried that here in Arizona and that worked for...maybe a week. State shut them down again and now they're saying indefinitely. In the grand scheme of things, its for the best (closing public places and getting rid of junk food snacks). But I miss them both.

Anyway, back to the topic. When I listened to the call recording, and then later read the brief update from CC, my impression was they just wanted to deflect. No one was stumped. They just didn't want to commit to anything. Even a tentative too-wide net of potential furlough considerations. About the best we got was "no base closures, BUT DONT QUOTE ME because it could change," and that they had considered early-outs but passed on the idea. Mostly just 45 minutes of hemming and hawing and avoiding anything of substance.

Are you guys referring to yesterday's call or the call on 7/16? I don't see meeting notes or the recording uploaded yet on the SAPA site.

I'm basing it off the 16th. Haven't seen or heard anything since.
