Im starting to think someone saw that the company is reporting their results and then thought it was a "special announcement" then the rumor spread like wild fires
 
Ya. There is probably no "special announcement". Every major announcement I Everett heard about (CJC being purchased, q400 purchase, xj purchase). Came with 0 warning. But the day before quarterly reports would be an excellent time to guess about a big announcement
 
Not just CA.. Even DTW CR9 went +4 years senior on the vacancy. Gotta love that heavy metal! Free corn flakes on long flights!

with 11-09 it is going from just under 7 years to just over 8 to be the bottom in DTW, now once that person bids off on the next vacancy it will jump up to about 11 years to be the bottom. So it's very close to having moved 4 years in a blink but not quite.
 
You guys are Newbies at Bankruptcy (Chapter 11) Easy Peasy. Give it a rest, and don't worry. It will all work out in the end.

The only thing that worries me this time is the holding company didn't just shell game all the money to sit on then have for DIP. Instead we got merged into a company being led by an assclown that mortgaged the entire place then stole the final cash advance as his gold parachute.

Don't forget croissants and even sandwiches sometimes.
 
In all seriousness I am beginning to think that this might not turn out that bad. Does anyone else think that? I'm not saying its going to be great but I'm not worried about the company going under
 
Well no, I don't think the company will go under. But there is still a chance that they could park a portion of the unprofitable fleet.

It appears that there maybe an opportunity to turn this into a good thing. If the labor groups and management don't screw it up. If they do that it will get ugly quickly. The recent history of the labor groups tells me to expect the worst.
 
Whatever happens, it's just prolonging the inevitable. In 1 year or 5 years, the 50-seat planes will all be gone.

What will be left? Expensive lifer pilots who can be easily replaced by the nextgen GoJet.

If you are a lifer at 9E corp, or just comfy with your current job, you better get a clue and start making a plan. Fedex is not going to call you, and there will be no big hiring spree at AA.

.

Are you the same guy who wants to burn the place down because a pilot should be paid what they are worth? Or do you hate the Lifers so muxh you'd prefer the flying to be switched between cheap feed?

So tell me again, what's your point?
 
Maybe your former CEO can buy a hotel at JFK and all the pilots transferred there from Atlanta can live together in one big happy Village.
 
I believe the 15 Feb announcement is related to the next round of staff reductions at the manager and below level.
