So 50 hr lines...
 
So how many will be offered ya think and how senior will they go? How many will step away on unpaid leave?

How did I know as soon as I read the email that someone would race over here to be the first to start a thread about it. They are nice options but not really worthy of a whole separate sub thread.

So should it go in the headset thread? Or the April 6 new hire class thread?

With the gossipy nature of the questions you posed, either would be suitable.

ok I’ll play:

How many? We will see on the May bid
How senior? We will see on the May bid results
Unpaid leave? Historically not many whenever this is offered at any company.

Or....

How many guys here can actually live off 50 hours?

I imagine these lines will go more senior on the CA side than the FO side. They also might go more junior in bases with high cost of living like FLL. Who knows, I’m just bored.

since when is APC a place of factual information? This whole forum is 90% gossip.

My guess is 300 per seat , company wide. Atleast for May.

MCDUmanipulator 03-27-2020 09:47 AM

With 75% reduced flying wouldn’t they probably want to offer around 50% to each seat? Cheaper to pay someone 50 hours then pay them 72 to just sit around not needed on reserve.
