Ebola is pretty fresh. We've had a guy die and several U.S. contractions. It's going to get worse before it gets better.
Silver lining: Better non-reving and cheaper hotels.

I get it, but I just talked with my mom that watches the news all the time.
She heard the report about how the second nurse from Dallas had flown on the Frontier flight. To her, that translated to: 'she got it from the airplane'.
The more the public knows about Ebola transmission, the better off we will be. Leaving it up to the public to figure out, will cost us all some money.
What about informational videos and PAs in the gate house and onboard during boarding? I don't think we are there yet, but we should be ready.
Something else I've thought about: proactively denying boarding to any people exhibiting any flu symptoms to prevent the quarantine like circumstances at the destination when the passengers stress out about potential ebola enroute. Civil liberties vs. protecting the operation.

Still no schedules out for "b" positions that I see. I know it's all about quality control and making our life's better but there has to be a way to speed up the review process.

Interesting. Soooo they exceed our current contract by a mere 5%. We have guys clamoring here for 40+% increase in pay rates. In case you guys haven't noticed, AAL is printing money too and all they got is 5% over their awesome bankruptcy contract. And we are gonna knock it out of the park? Pray tell how.
