If you go on FtWeb and select Date/Station ALB for tomorrow's date you it does say "Must Ron ALB Lease return" on 3 airplanes.

It also says that 834 is operating the EWR flight tomorrow morning. That's one of the airplanes that has the "Must Ron ALB Lease return" note on it so it's hard to gauge.

828 is doing IAD tomorrow. Is that N351NG by any chance?

Remember, those leased airplanes were there to relieve Fleet pressure while 1st class accommodations were being installed.... It's anyone's guess right now.

Yeah. You're right. The timing is just scary.

and the first class upgrades have been halted. the other two were spares. Any company needs spares.

I think the important thing to remember is that any company is going to to go with plan A all the way until the point Plan B is implemented.

So save your $$ and plan for the worst, but it is not necessarily going to happen.

Ft web shows 4 airplanes on lease return 3 of which are in ALB. 2 Qs and 2 Saabs.The Qs go to ALB on April 1st. If I remember right, those are the two we sold to Wells Fargo last year to get money for parts. Its not the white tail leases.
