nobody with half a brain at SWA thinks furloughs are coming. Crew scheduling literally just posted a message advertising premium will be awarded before assigning reserves tomorrow, which hardly speaks to being overstaffed. Upgrades are continuing too, while hiring slows after March classes have started. D225 candidates will continue to flow in, as well.

right, I agree with you, my point was not that Southwest might be about to furlough. My point are the alarmist that always go direct to furlough. I don’t think the word furlough has even come up in the southwest talks during all of this Max7 mess. But I’m also not sold that we are in a position to furlough either

I have wondered for some time about network decisions like going from 2 daily bos-bwi to none. Now they're bringing back 2 daily bos-bwi with a terminated agreement with b6. Points at losing money, perhaps not to show loss, but to show less overlap. Spirit had pushed B6 completely out of the bwi market pre-covid. Things like this is where spirit gets its profits back, at the expense of Jetblue.

Alright back in contract negotiations! I think this is a good time to demand the company give us profit sharing and Delta pay rates!!!
