I think CVG is toast, I'm surprised it's not closed already, but where will they put that time, that's the question. I was displaced out of there in 1993, when DL sold the DC9's and gave all that flying to Com Air.
What's left there? Just MD88's and 737's?

Is there an IROP forecast in ATL tomorrow? SC numbers are 50% greater for M88 FOs than what was planned for by crew scheduling for tomorrow. What's the purpose of putting that POS out if they have no intention of following it?

Fear not, it will get better after the "next" AE. Reserve is a choice. (not even I could keep a straight face after that.)

Yes. The temp is below 40 degrees & it is a weekend following a Holiday. Our load factor will be up from 99.98 to 114.7 and families tend to check bags (or are forced to gate check their 4th through 8th carry on garbage bag)
.... ( just thinking, it would be amusing if we could count lap kids Cockpit and FA jump seats to actually acomplish an over 100% load factor. Last week we had 173 "souls" on a 160 seat jet ... and a stow away dog, no kidding )
All things considered I am impressed with the way Delta has operated with this traffic density (although we are down almost 11% for the week since last year)
