DTW can probably be held within 5-6 months. Most junior DTW fo is May 21,2012 hire date. Senior at the top but junior at the bottom. Last award (jan '13) had new hires going to ACY, FLL and LAS. Prob get our new base DFW fairly quick as well.
Hope this helps.

Probably referring about the FAA seat reconstruction program, (2 planes down a mo).
Lesson learn, we hope.
Moving on, employee website (pilots w/o other dep krap), better CS response, EFB, AQP, KCM, better ID-90 choices, etc.
But at least we are moving.

On another note, JH letter about alpo talks, specifically JM...I don't understand, if they can't cover trips, JM limited to 2 a month, 5 a yr, why can't the offer other kind of premium (not going to say it), instead of hiring more people and having 72 hr hard lines?

Leaving us with a win - win. No pilot credits too much, and payroll doesn't have to pay any premium pay. What's not to like?

Because it's not fair for a certain kiwi or a certain FLL Captain to credit more than 150 hours a month, so the union wants to shut down the disparity. .....And....The company loathes paying any premium pay.

But if NK is short covering trips, as he mentions on the letter, why can they come to an agreement with ALPO on a premium pay for those who are wiling to stay in the salt mine during their time off. And avoid over hiring people.
