ATL717a -- lots of black next month and in the most recent AE 25 bid off and only 1 backfill. Might get interesting over the next few months; not 350 interesting or 1st half of 2016 717b interesting, but probably something to watch.

Thanks!

Here's what happens...(just happened to a friend.)
It's a nothing burger if you're not scheduled for an international leg.
You call crew tracking and let them know your passport didn't arrive on time, so please don't reroute you into an international segment.
You get your passport and you call pilot assist and tell them your new passport date and number and they update you for CASS.

If you are a widebody guy, It's probably not that easy.

One thing to be optimistic about, history has proven that nearly everytime the company has slowed hiring or tried to cut cost with schedules, it has resulted in a Greenslip party. The A350 being the latest example.
