I just booked a flight for October and the flight is listed as an East Metal flight. When did East takeover that route?

 

[FenixFlyer3]

It's always been an east flight. They started it a few months ago.

Actually its currently showing as a West flight. It appears with the August schedule change it goes to East metal.
Also East adds a TPA-LAS-TPA flight in August and drops the CLT-TPA-CLT flight. Not sure what other flights are being moved, these are just the ones that I am familiar with.

I hope east takes back the CLT/PBI/CLT turns, with the CLT ramp getting as bad as PHL it is bringing down the stats. HP has no business doing those east coast turns and same with east doing SAN and SLC turns, what was marketing thinking.

Huh? Why not?

One sick call and we are done, no fa's or pil's on the east coast.

Pretty dumb way to run an Airline, isn't it? :unsure:

 

[soc-hpjester]

True, thats why the east has got to take back the old east coast routes..... For example 2 days ago, had a sk fo in CLT.... had to cancel CLT/SAN/CLT now that not a pretty scene.

Not only that, but try having a maint on the East side with West metal (and I'm sure vice versa). No planes to swap out or reroute so you just canx and deal with it. Again and again and again......

Yet Doug and company believe that they "could" run the airline seperately if need be. We'll just see about that.

Yet they were willing to bring everyone up to the highest pay scale if we had mergered with Delta. LIARS!!

Been telling you for a pretty long while now that the Emporer has no clothes.

Hope the consultants can deliver the goods. Not confident of that BTW, just hopeful is all.

Why would anyone good enough to successfully run an Airline become a Consultant? Wouldn't they be successfully running an Airline already? This is just more Tempe BS!

The pay is good and you don't have to stick around for the consequences.

I was looking at the way the East routing on the West and the West routing on the East. It reminds me of the "Link Flying" that US Air tried after the PSA integration. It was a disaster then and will be one again. I guess mgmt. doesn't know their history very well.

WE HAVE A WINNER! The masses have been saying that for months. The ONLY thing the consultants will come back with is "Why are Idiots running the Asylum?"
