Oh ok now I get it. Thats why they keep cutting our workforce here at DFW without reducing our flights. Because soon were going to have 1000s of employees. Wow I would have never guessed. :lol:

One of the many problems not only with USAirways but with the industry as a whole. Most of our cost are out of our control, such as fuel,landing fees,government fees, and the like. The cost that they can control of course is our pay, air fares. It makes if very difficult to keep other things...

Well if we wait on management to fix things and hope for them to improve our moral, we will be waiting a long long time. Your job is what you make it. It is what it is. There are ways to fix things but most is out of our hands. I agree the East vs West needs to be long and over with, it helps...

AUS is one of the fastest growing cities in the US, however the problem in AUS is gate space. We only have one and one share. Every gate in AUS is used. OKC would be a nice return market. F9 is getting ready to offer service to Florida.

And what were seeing now is good for employees. Like more layoffs, short work forces. Something has to give and its time to see major changes in this industry if we are ever to reap real benefits from it as employees.

Not to mention the diastrous healthcare bill going thru congress. That keeps small bussinsess from expanading and spending. However the one we should all keep our eye on is that stupid Cap and Tax bill that will nearly double if not triple the cost of our business. Everyone in the...

This is just a small example, but from DFW our PHX flights are very strong. Many with connecting pax out of PHX. This to me seems positive seeing as DFW is an AA stronghold where pax could just go non-stop to most of the cities served out of PHX.

Off topic post removed. That issue can be discussed in the Water Cooler. Lets get back on US Fleet Service issues.

My guess here would be these would not add to the fleet but just replace the 733 that will continue to be parked next year. Just a guess.

It is hard to believe that its been 15 years. I was working that night in JAX ops. I got a call from our manager who just happen to be in PIT for a meeting. He told me what had happened. From my understanding the crew and the a/c RON in JAX the night before. My prayers go out to the families.

Yep and dont expect that to get any better as long as we have Obanomics in place for the next 4 years. Tax Tax and Tax again.

Well for one who lives in the DFW area AA has some financial problems that they can no longer ignore. The more the DL/NW merger cuts into there profit the more they will continue to look for a partner whether they like it or not. So in this case never say never.

Well I would agree that good on board service is more important than Mr Parker says, with that said though in this economy I think right now he has it right. The business traveler is more concerned about price, being there on time, and getting my bag. If you look at the stats lately US is doing...

What I find amazing is how silent the nations big unions were on this vote. They could have killed this vote before it got started. This bill as is will kill many union jobs. The IAM and UAW stand to lose many jobs here. Wonder who is lining there pockets to be so silent. Lets hope the...

Well correct me if Im wrong here but I believe that money that went to the banks had to be approved by congress. Which I think is controlled by the Dems. So I would have to say there is a lot of blame there to go around. As I said we need real change not the same old song and dance from...
