Over 40 retirements in one month is not worth mentioning?
Prior to the age 60 legislation we were averaging about thirty a month. I doubt we ever had a month with 150 retirements. We were only forecasting 300-350 retirements for the whole year. Since all of this year I may have seen maybe one retirement notice a month in the crew room, yes, thirty in one month is a big deal.
There is still the possibility of more retirements being processed for November, and what about December? This is going to cause a lot of ripple effect vacancy training in the January bid and if we don't bring back the 147 we are going to be even more shorthanded next summer than we were this year. This is a good sign, but the question is will this become a trend?
CAL is great! I am finishing this 4 day trip, I can honestly say that it was nice to fly again.... that 45 day stretch of no flying was definitely welcome, but a 4 day trip once in awhile is good.....
Anyone who does not like it here is nuts! Even the captain I am flying with says that you guys should quit if you do not like it....
