Case in point, the IAH-SYD loads for the last few months. The company dropped at least one day per week and the loads are still really soft. I'd put that BES back on death watch. Maybe the they should just put a 50 seater on it.

Honest question regarding scope and NSNB near the bottom. Given that NSNB language allows more regional 76 seaters if we add the mainline 100 seaters, if instead an equivalent number of 737s (let’s say Max 7) are added instead with concrete language about maintaining a minimum number that’s equal to what the NSNB language would have required, to me that would seem like a win, no?
I don’t know if that is what is being discussed but think it through - esp the pay scale side of things. What’s the ultimate goal here given that the company can already choose to add 76 seaters w/ NSNB?

An interesting article and a lot of positive in there.

It has been asked and answered when UAL ordered the 700s. The union answer was NO. UAL has at least 20 used Arbii coming, I'm glad were not giving them 76 seaters for those. The whole point of narrowly defining the NSNB is to finalize the question of who will fly 100 seat jets...Mainline or Regionals.
Bingo
Very well said
All aircraft over 70 seats must be flown by mainline new hires

There was never a question about who flies more than 50 seats, until the bankruptcy. There was never a question about who flies more than 70 seats, until contract 2012. SKW and TSA have orders for the MRJ and the E175E2. They're just waiting...

Right! I can't figure out why we are still discussing this. Even if Kirby really, really, really promised he would never go back on his word, we would be fools to give an inch on scope. I talk to guys with under 1 year left until retirement and they all tell me that they would never vote for a contract with scope relief and they probably have the least to lose by giving up scope!
