Default DTW growth

How are they adding all of this new flying when we’re so understaffed? Seems like Detroit is going back to what it used to be but somehow with half the pilots…

its 300% city on the capt side. The sr capts are bidding down just so they can scoop up triple pay trips. FOs are getting some too. Attrition for may already is insane. Going to be a profitable summer. Atl will definitely supplement the dtw ops too.

DTW up? MSP is down….

MSP has been covering DTW flying. But with insane attrition we lost 19% block for June. Perhaps that’s the Detroit crap we can no longer cover. Disclaimer. No one is saying that and I’ve not looked at the pairings yet.

Anyway. Shrinking for summer. AND a captain shortage? Hell, there’s a dozen more CA here then FOs. FO shortage with no relief in sight. Many days it’s emails from the chief hoping we will pick up open time.

You could always ask your friendly RSR (via SWOL). I'd be He would be more than happy to answer - he's the same guy who does the CRJ RSR report for MSP, DTW, and SLC.
