China and US agree to double weekly flights by the end of October. That will definitely drive some more WB hours and positions.

That seems like buyers remorse waiting to happen. They also said on this AE they may not award all the 330 slots too.

I wish I had the cojones Flex has to go for NYC330 but man I can’t do it. So I’ll live vicariously through him for the next year.
Fish, Big E, and Taco… thank you! I currently have 6 350/330 positions bid with no percentages. I’m hoping that MSP and ATL 330B opens up a good amount of NYC330 backfills

I believe the children are our future….”

Flex, when your dreams come true, Don’t just ghost us quiet fans out here in the cyberspace wilderness. We appear to be drawing uplifting emotional support from your positive energy. I’m beginning to believe it’s creating a bit of a dependency situation. One that may result in withdrawal symptoms if a cold turkey cut off were happen.

Agree.

Look at the irrational amount of time Delta spends pontificating about cyber security--they're even making us switch to an 8 digit passcode on our iPads, ffs. Yeah, that will really move the needle. It's luddite, obsolete tech eyewash from some bubba corporate security empty suit in his fadeout-to-retirement job.

but they give Curly the data--OUR data-- without a peep. maybe it's a payoff for being a sleeper company stooge before, during, and after his DALPA work.

I wonder if curly has sold our data to the chinese government yet.

Somebody should tag IT and ask the question on SkyHub. That’ll settle it.

Relax, the Chinese already have that info if you are on any social media or use a phone with a Huawei chip.
