CLT is AA's most profitable hub. It would not quite so good for AA without PSA's contribution to their bottom line...
(One AA regional is no longer interchangeable with another. Fleets are getting segregated out. The AA regional used is dependent on route geography and what equipment AA wants or needs on any given route.)

Looking at the June awards maxtrix (recently posted) I continue to be confused.
If there is a shortage of captains, I would reason that reserve would be virtually non-existent because all captains would be utilized for the available flying, but most bases appear to have about a two year timeframe between SCR and R1.
Why, given the shortage, do new captains have to sit reserve for so long? It seems to me that any reserve time indicates the company is flush with captains willing and capable of flying. What am I missing here?

Just curious, where can one find the chart showing the base seniority list? I see the one from June on here, is there one for July that's out? Starting my time building in August with a likely start of September/October for FO school.

July won’t be out until the 23rd or 24th.
