Furlough Estimates

[JordanD]

Yea they kept the rights to it. Ask me how I know...

The fact they called the regional “PSA Airlines” always pissed me off. Pacific Southwest Airlines Airlines? Are they going to go make a withdrawal from the ATM machine with their PIN number?

Well buy an airline with a particular route network, maintain the route network for a period of time then yank all the assets into exsiting pre-acquisition routes.

Western, Pan Am (FRA), Northwest (NRT)....

Have you figured out yet, that the airlines will be lucky to exist, and we'll all be lucky to have jobs in 12 months?

I'd love to be positive about this, but there ain't much positive happening in this industry right now. The idea of moving in on another airline's turf isn't even on the radar of any airline right now, keeping the lights on is.

Meh I'm sure they are doing both. For this industry to survive there will need to be consolidation. But what do i know, I'm not even a commercial pilot.

Agree. Why wouldn’t they?

Merger of stock and consolidation? Sure.

Expending capital to expand an out station into a hub? I doubt it.

Expending the capital on purchasing another carrier? I doubt it.

Memphis?

Memphis?

Delta kept a major portion of NWA’s network so I wouldn’t really draw the comparison out that far. Memphis just didn’t make sense to keep with ATL, MSP, and what I hear at the time was a promising market, CVG.

Kinda like Federal Express Express?

Memphis only has spokes to Deltas other hubs. Its
completely dismantled.

Yes. We agree. What I’m saying is Delta didn’t merge with NWA and then sack it’s entire network like the Western and Airways examples. It was only Memphis and even that took 5 or so years.

MSP, DTW, and SEA seemed to be packed with Delta flights at least until COVID hit.

Furloughs will be lower if people act right.

People won’t act right. Look at all of the doomers here cheering on the panic. And they’re all at risk of furlough themselves! Writing their own furlough notice.

 

[Nark]

The more secluded/ quarantined you are @SlumTodd_Millionaire , the more I’m agreeing with you.

Ok?
