I'd imagine a lot of new hires will be going there as well.

I thought we were only flying twelve 200s in ATL. That would only be about 60 crews...
The junior upgrade has been on property 10 days now.

The only thing better than first class people is exceptional aviators.

I think it will be a mix, much like we've been seeing. Some here and there. Its up to 22xx something global seniority. About the same as it was a year ago.

There's plenty of ORD CRJ CA's that will jump when the Delta switch gets turned on. For the airplanes headed out West there's already existing CA's wanting to transfer or transition. The West coast transition/transfer lists are pretty deep right now.

Upgrade is down to 10 days.
Very interesting times ahead. May not be long before we don’t have anyone to upgrade, whether it be because they are not eligible or are unwilling.

Those that claimed last upgrade awards were artificially junior because of the holidays have been proven wrong.

Did a 2% reduction in block hours get passed off as "relief"?

Don’t you dare question TTG. We’re only taking 45 airplanes at an aggressive pace next year (+ however many 200’s get un-mothbolled).... what can go wrong?
