Well, they just displaced a bunch of 787 pilots out of EWR. Therefore, based on all my previous airline experience, I expect them to add a bunch of 787 flying out of EWR and be short pilots to fly it…

Because the 787 flying will be shifted to the West Coast bases, per the crew resources update. They also have an open bid for 25 777 CA in EWR.

So in addition to the Bogota Mafia, we'll have the Bangkok Brigade? Time to put my WB bid in (I kid, I kid...)

it’s a blintz- basically a savory filled crepe. I like it more than the turkey/vegetable main, I’ve found its probably 80% the turkey entree and 20% the blintz.

Interesting how that will be the same day Delta will be announcing their Q3 earnings.
I have to say, I didn’t see Mongolia and Greenland coming…

7 new routes to places no other US airline flies and most Americans have probably never heard of. What could possibly go wrong?

Scott Kirby sure likes to gamble with everyone's career the way he runs that place.

In the early 2000s Leo Mullin had a vision for Delta to "fly from anywhere to everywhere". Bankruptcy soon followed. Now Delta is the most profitable airline and mostly stays on the beaten path. Seems to make sense.

Loved the social media influencer campaign leading up to this "big" announcement. I'm sure Greenland and Mongolia and some cities in Spain and Portugal that probably only Hemmingway have ever been to will excite everyone and will be major revenue generators.
