Any news? Other than asking for voluntary furloughs?

I think it's beyond that. A buddy of mine flew his last trip, and the furlough wasn't voluntary.

Furloughs Cancelled.

Furloughs postponed is probably a better way to put it. It seems like they are struggling with a long term growth strategy, thus the month to month changes in the staffing forecast. It would be nice to have a crystal ball...

Furloughs Cancelled.

Confirmed. Although nothing more definite than month to month employment, it seems. Better than furlough, though.

I heard that 2 more 744 going back and furloughs up to seniority number around 200 effective 1 Sept. Good luck.

Make it 3 August.

Was in VCV the other day, sad seeing a Southern 744 that looked brand new (I know, just new paint) all sealed up and collecting dust. Good luck fellas

But if Evergreen can keep hanging on, why not Southern? I do have a dog in this dog fight and I want this company to succeed. I just don't know if I will retire first or be recalled.

We are hanging on..

Evergreen reminds me of a cat with more then nine lives; good luck at Southern I have friends over there hoping for the best!

The water park is doing real good.. So that helps us hang on.

If the new rumored hotel actually comes to fruition.....then Del needs to be brought down a few pegs.

Southern crews on the crew bus have said furloughs down to 175 pilots total with only 6 aircraft and they were not very optimistic.

Best of Luck to All
I have been there several times, not fun

Anybody know the date of hire the furloughs reach?
