FDX-New HKG Practice Is Out
#11
This problem has many ways to be fixed; wait it out, retirement incentives (not interested apparently), new flying or reduce staff. Spreading the wealth would be fine by me only if it is done system wide, on an equal basis. There can't be have's and have not's when or if we go below 68/85. That is the reason the Company has not done it yet, they know there will be a $hit storm if they elect to apply BLG reductions on an "as needed" basis which is all they want to do in order to cover the problems they did nothing to avoid.

If it's money that drives this issue, we wouldn't buy up lines. We would, instead, just increase the number of reserve lines. It costs less to have a bubba on reserve than give him/her 61 hrs of flying on a 68 hr paid line. Plus--You would have a ton of folks available to fly with 1.5 hrs of notice. We would see even less draft than what is paid right now.
