700 --> 650?
 
Wonder how the reduced aicraft expectation will affect hiring by 2030?

The crazy TK expansion, buying hunderds of acres near DIA, dumping $1B into the airport itself......but yes keep assuring the Illinois govenor we aren't leaving WT!

Scott misses his kids man. His wife said no way to Chicago, and he is sick of living the bachelor life during the week, so he’s building a fortress hub in Denver.

Really the only question is: will he be like so many academy grads, and return to “the springs” … or will he go the rich-outdoorsy-guy route and buy a humble, 6,000 square-foot house in Boulder?

There's rumors we're looking at targeting only ~1700ish new hires this year so maybe that is part of the slowdown.

Only? Yes, less than 22 and 23. But higher than any other year in the last three decades, by a long shot!

Thanks. Still amazing numbers but a slowdown no doubt.

Is that a reflection of lower need, or is it a matching throughput to capacity thing?
