We’re losing 2.5 pilots from the seniority list every day so they won’t really have any choice.

[QUOTE=Name User;3819907]We may see some small schedule cuts as the months go by. We just announced some LHR cuts from PHX and LAX.


those LHR cuts do make sense. Many are flown on the 777’s and the 77-W’s are going in for retrofit. So those cuts I would guess it’s more for the retrofits happening. Just like all the old 319’s and 320’s getting retrofitted this fall as well as the Alaska NEO’s getting their American Interior’s put in.

I don't know why the LHR cuts for the winter are making such headlines. Most of our hub to LHR flying gets cut by a flight or two in the winter. DFW goes from 4 to 3.

Those Alaska NEO (N###XV) interiors are straight garbage. Flew a couple lately and I’d be ****ed if I paid for FC in those worn out seats.

The radar is awesome though, so of
course they’re going to remove those too…

I flew one a while back with 19 MEL/NEFs

It was pretty intimidating at first until I realized it really only had 3 mels and the rest were tray tables, seat backs, wifi etc. Pretty easy to sort out after that. BUT overall, yikes.

AS let em go knowing they were getting rid of them. They'll all be retro'd soon enough and be fresh.

But yeah, sucks we are losing the radar. I flew a couple last month; definitely liked it.

Default PHX FO Super Junior

I can't believe how mega-junior 737 PHX FO is. 12,3xx is number ONE. Crazy. Interesting to see how the bid package looks.

And the junior 737 PHX CA is junior to that, 13000+, April 2022 hire. 2.5 years to CA. Pretty crazy. Wonder how long that takes at SW?

Ok that makes sense and makes me less concerned. My flights haven't been 100% full lately which was worrisome seeing as we are in peak summer.
