"The value of fun" LOL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
That's a good one. The disconnect between the people in the bubble at Miramar and the front line employees couldn't be bigger.

To your point: there is a huge disconnect between corporate and everyone else. When I was in Capt Charm School we took a visit there. The we're having a party. There was a band, everyone was smiling and happy. We were all like "where are we!?!". They even had free alcoholic beverages.

It's amazing how in a corporate setting people will forego raises for "culture". Parties and culture are always cheaper for the company.

I know I come for one reason and that's to get money. They can keep the culture

That's amazing, but not surprising at all. It appears we are working for a completely different airline.

Default 6 more leased AC?

question for you all.

6 NEO's down 1 320 and 5 321 new lease AC as of yesterday or would this bee an extension of some other leases.? One would think all the 321's but two have current lease or have been purchased.

Reuters.

I believe Mr. Beam is referring to this... http://mobile.reuters.com/article/idUSFWN1H70VK

"The big announcement"... now we can all move on.
