Mainly, they're hiring more schedulers and rampers. Also proactively cancelling flights in advance. Doesn't give you warm and fuzzy feelings.

In seat power is never going to happen I did catch that question bc it was at the very end. I think person had a good reason for asking it but management didn’t really catch it. When you can keep people fully powered up on their devices they tend to not start fights when they wait an hour for a gate. A lot easier to keep the tempers down when you keep them cold and a screen babysitting them.

Does our WifI even work on the ground?

Just keeping the devices powered is the key. WiFi isn’t needed when you have a cell signal

Any talk of mandating vaccine for team members?

Underwing staffing: Pay has been increased, forgot who said it but we are leading pay in something like 12 cities, not just competing with other airport jobs but other companies hiring in general.

MIA: not planned to be a co-domicile at the moment, most likely out and back done by other bas crews. 9 flight initially and then when Frontier moves, triple that coming. Too early to assess bookings.

AQP: pass rates in the high 90% for all events.

Training: Nearly 40 new LCA’s. Sim in MCO should be up and running late this fall subject to FAA approvals.

Hiring: classes full through Oct, still a hundred more to hire for Nov and Dec. 6-700 next year, about half that upgrades. Average new hire has higher hours than preferred mins. Meet the chiefs scheduled in MCO and LAS. Looking into bridge programs and military rotor wing pilots.

Uniforms: still a thing, but not until at least next year, CP says will liaise with ALPA to make sure it is acceptable/professional

New notification app will have two way messaging in coming months.

There’s a bit more but it’s late and I don’t have my notes
Okay, but how about the important questions;

Did Ted spill the beans if he was on an episode of undercover boss that’s about to air?

and did anyone ask (again) about flights to Hawaii and Genovia?

Less than a third of delta variant deaths are in the unvaccinated.

Let me say that another way - two-thirds of Delta deaths in the UK are in the jabbed.

To be specific:

From the 1st of February to the 2nd of August, the UK recorded 742 Delta deaths (yes, the dreaded Delta has not taken that much life).

Out of the 742 deaths, 402 were fully vaccinated. 79 had received one shot. Only 253 were unvaccinated.

Once we go down this road it won't stop. There will be more mandatory shots. This is from a story about highly vaccinated Israel:

A whopping 60 percent of all new hospitalizations in Israel are “fully vaccinated” patients who are now being told by their government that they need a third “booster” shot in order to stay “safe” against vaccine-caused mutations.

Why is there such a fanaticism with vaccinating everyone when the young and healthy have less than a .1% chance of dying from Covid?

As experts like Martin Kulldorff, biostatistician, epidemiologist and professor of medicine at Harvard Medical School, and Jay Bhattacharya, professor of medicine at Stanford University and research associate at the National Bureau of Economic Research, have long said, it makes zero sense to vaccinate the young and healthy.

Dr. Luc Montagnier, a world-renowned French virologist and recipient of a Nobel Prize for discovering HIV has said that the mass vaccine program is an "unacceptable mistake" and are a "scientific error as well as a medical error."

There has been over 12,000 deaths and more than 500,000 adverse reactions on the VAERS system alone, which is known for far under reporting of events.

Everyone should be free to make their own health decisions, and not be coerced by your employer to get a vaccine that may not work, or may cause you harm for a virus that for some, has virtually no threat to them.
Seriously, we dont need to get into this back and forth crap like other sub forums have.

Hey guys did they say if the new uniforms will feature the booster shot flap or no? Also the Alexa devices for crew notification, will those require a signature for delivery like the iPad?
