Contract section 23.H.5.i
Note: During the PBS bid award process, a swap involving a rotation that contains any duty period, or portion thereof, that is within the last six days of the current bid period will not be granted.
Until the schedules are released into DBMS, we are still within the "PBS bid award process."

Could someone pick it up on a white slip in the 'last 6 days'? Does that rule only apply to swaps or all PCS functions; drops, swaps, white slips? In the posted verbiage above it only says swaps.

First quarter results are out. Numbers look good. Bad news however is a planned reduction in flying possible next winter because of currency weakness.

It's just in foreign markets, that will be well offset by domestic increases. DCI made ~$350 million due to the fuel cost savings, (down 44% due to being unhedged)

Did you see Delta's fuel costs! 2.93 a gallon which is up from 2.62 a gallon in the last quarter. Margins would have been 17 to 18% had we paid market rates.

Yeah, like I've said, hedging is a bad idea, DCI is only paying $1.87 gal. AA earnings will be ridiculous, man their pilots got hosed.

Just looked it up. 1st quarter last year was $444 million in pre-tax profit. This year $594 million. I guess that means a bigger profit sharing check this year? Is that a good assumption?
