Possible Plane Order
FAs mainly, yup. It’s ridiculous. I’ve been deadheading and have had FAs talking openly about how they hope their next flight is canceled, and loud about it. Zero oversight on FAs. It’s amazing because it seems they have an enforceable list of a million things they can get “points”’for, yet nobody makes sure they get off their phone during boarding or have the window shades closed in the summer.
And as discussed, they get profit sharing IF we ever see it

I never understood the “I hope it cancels” mentality. For one, you’re ruining a lot of people’s plans (vacations/funerals/birthdays/ births of a family member/etc) because you’re selfish and want to go have a drink at the hotel. Two, cancellations are never as easy as: “you’re cancelled, here’s a really nice hotel on the beach and a car is outside waiting to take you there.” It’s usually a major cluster F where you sit around for 2 hours waiting for them to find a hotel then you get minimum rest just to deadhead at the crack of dawn to pick up the rest of your trip.

Is it poor taste to announce that hope I’m hearing range of people that would be impacted? Absolutely!

Can anyone confirm this? I was told SAVE stock trading window has been suspended for all higher management. I guess it can only mean big news is coming next week.

they aren’t really ruining anything, though are they? I mean, hoping something cancels isn’t making a wish that if suddenly comes true is because it was made. It was going to cancel regardless.

I just don’t get why someone would be hoping all these people’s plans get screwed up. I know it’s out of their control just shows what kind of person you are to be excited about something like that.

It was his first post, and it sounded like it was written to read like journalism, all official with dates and such. The first deliveries aren’t scheduled till 4th Q 2020. I’m thinking MCDU created an alter ego to back up his initial post with a “second” poster to regain the credibility that didn’t exist in the first place. Nice try MCDU...the manipulator part was prophetic.
