I miss Carl too.

Padre, talked to Carl lately?

That is true. They are also buying Starbucks to cut down on coffee costs but will code share the coffee and charge pilots for their second cup.

If we allow them to have 10 more CRJ-900s, we get that second cup for free.

Cost neutral blah blah blah.

So if we merge with Alaska, then I'm sure we have overlap right? So how much would we have to cut?

I know the first thing we'd have to give up, LAX.

I think it's Haneda out of Seattle. Carl will be there in a 747-400 to accept the salmon.

Anyone remember how we used to fly 777-200ERs JFK to BOM and then ATL-BOM on the LRs, but pulled it due to air india starting to fly 777-200s?

They appreciate it.



Now Air India featuring much larger 777-300ERs JFK-BOM.

Don't you know the MEC and ALPA Legal have final creative control over LEC Letters? That's still vastly filtered. That's like a horse that can talk. "That's amazing!" you say, but you should still wonder later why that horse could talk.

The MEC controls the spin. The contract survey said simply "more money, less RJs". One Internet based survey isn't enough to specify specific contract demands. In terms of two months of section 6 we got exactly what we paid for.
