What do the masses say about the fact that American and Delta haven’t changed a thing?

Agreed. I talked to a buddy at delta yesterday. He said they haven’t changed a thing. Their lines look normal for April. Neither has stopped hiring.

their planes are just as empty as ours. They can either adjust or not I personally think it’s a good idea fiscally to adjust and put the capacity back in a few months when the hysteria ends.

imporrant to remember we are not chopping up airplanes.

This reaction means we either have some really smart guys who are seeing something the rest of the industry isnt seeing. Or our management is team bean counters to the extreme who will exploit every provision in the UPA to save a nickel regardless how it affects morale or employee relations. I don’t think there’s an in between. Time will tell.
