Oh Bluey.....I guess we should just add a "MINT" section to our planes and call ourselves an LCC.

Do whatever the farts you want. WTF do I care?

They pretty much have to exhaust all options before they can reassign someone already on a trip.

AA = reassignment is scheduling's first choice

Yeah but we have so many new schedulers that don't understand the rules, and the CBA in general, that the rescheduling agreement gets skipped over. And good luck proving it.

Scheduling has been getting very creative lately and purposefully avoiding the x/y list (yes the union knows about it).

Cancelled Flights
 
How many flights were cancelled, yesterday, for no FO? I know of at least one. FOs I spoke with were all on 200% pay. Just sayin…

I buy tickets when we travel and never even consider a ULCC. For a couple extra bucks you can actually get where you want to go and also avoid the riff raff.

The model isn’t scalable without adding infrastructure and infrastructure costs money.

Spirit, Frontier, and Delta all had the same percentage of cancellations for today so far…close to 0% but that was a cool story anyways…

I always buy the BFS as long as it’s a one legger. No issues.

this story is such bull. Yea ULCC product is garbage and customer service is trash but the statistics show NK gets people A-B on time and more reliable than most. Look it up and stop watching late night talk shows.

Is this a real statistic? Great news if true and we’re ahead of the big 4.
