As I understand it, NK is in a competitive position at $90 a barrel. My guess is that the plan is to pray that it doesn't spike so high this summer.

It was explained to my recurrent class recently that we are now hedging fuel.

Hopefully more than 30% this time. And hopefully around 40-50 a drum.

I would think this is why they are trying to get them A320's so that they can generate more revenue from increased capacity.

So, is the company looking for A/C's for this year or they are going to wait until MAR 2010 deliveries, and what's the actual number, 4, 5 or 7, 320's or 319's

4 A320's. 1 a month as of March, 2010. Then deliveries in 2011. Heard from a hotshot in corporate, no aircraft deliveries this year.

When would likely the first recall occur then? Is a month before a safe bet?

Let me ask you guys. I am planning to move back with my wife up North around the Chicago area. It was a mistake for us to have moved down to Florida. O well. It's done. How is the commute from Chicago or Milwaukee to FLL or ACY? Anyone doing this commute?

I know a guy that does the ORD-ACY commute...its ok but you are going to need a car in ACY. There are quite a few flights from ORD-PHL, then about a 1 hour drive to ACY. MKE I think would be much more difficult.
