What will they do?​

Sounds like you can thank Mesa and Delta for that.

Rising panic in the management ranks. The voices of reason pointing out for months that we're understaffed and they needed to do something about it, were scoffed at and dismissed. It's been said for months that there was no way we'd be doing any less flying than last summer and we have substantially less pilots. Simple 3rd grade logic would have pointed to recalls and upgrades. Hall and Tutt need to be fired over this. The world will be a happier place

I'm changing my recall status to 'bypass'...this looks like a nightmare scenario to be recalled into.

Seriously considering it. Havnt pulled the trigger yet.

I haven't seen anything stating they are outright cancelling vacations yet. I would suspect the next step would be offering to pay some type of premium to buy people out.

-If they cancel people's R&R time, there will be outright war! I really think Brad is smarter than that, (as for some of the others-who knows?)

-Maybe we should not have committed to "opportunistic" flying we have no chance of being able to cover.

Maybe it's all in the plan and CT and SH know exactly what they're doing.

A friend was JR manned a 2 day tomorrow. They assigned him a 2 day on a 5 day off run. He was notified via ACARS. Way to ruin a good morale.

The only way I might be okay with losing a vacation week is if I was still paid for it, maybe add time-n-half too. Double dipping. I'm NOT saying it'd be all good.

Just say'n I MIGHT be okay...

That doesn't help anyone who actually made plans...school is out, spouses time off to match yours...ect. Totally inconsiderate and poor planning. Their lack of planning shouldn't be YOUR emergency.

Am I missing something? The email made it sound like they were asking for volunteers!

I wouldn't miss my R&R for triple time!
