Some days this month they have no FO’s on any SYD. Averaging at least 2 trips a day uncovered from PBS. Some days as many as 5. But they haven’t really opened it up much on bids, and with more routes coming I’m sure those FO’s will be taking in tons of GS.

for some reason delta loves to severely understaff our widebodies.

The base visit mentioned that the plan is to do just about all the flying on the 350 out of LAX once we have enough of them. The delivery delays will impact when the flights actually transition to the 350. If true the LAX350 category should have to double or triple I would imagine at minimum. Have been surprised on the last few AEs not seeing even a gradual build up of pilots. But might be they had to prioritize domestic fleets.

Which is crazy as we have been hiring 200/mo consistently, and deliveries are coming along but nothing excessive.

I think it goes to show how short we really were, look at the ALV for 73NB and 320B in April. Two seats are not like the others. Yowza!

How are those seats still so short?
