Out of Newark it is neither of those. It's just more departures than the system can handle. And the airlines aren't sending out empty planes just to gum up the works. Obviously more folks want to fly and have more frequencies to do so.

Nate puh-leez, the Boeing 787 is made all over the world ! It's like the Kumba Yah airliner.

Oh contraire ! At the end of the day you're only as good as what you NEGOTIATE ! Besides I have an Exwife and several bartenders to support ! And BTW some 12 year Captains make even more than that. I know one particularly diligent senior wide-body F/O that made 300k.

Lots of Airbus stuff made here in the United States. IIRC their largest helicopter plant is over here in Mississippi.

Think about this for a moment - The three largest airlines in the WORLD in terms of passengers carried, revenue generated and by PROFIT are ; American Delta United Now somehow, amazingly these same three companies that command so much of the marketplace find it ECONOMICALLY UNSUITABLE to...

Ok, that's fine. If folks want to give their money to countries that dance in the streets whenever an American dies - who am I to stop them ?

Ok, so we just treat people that way because we enjoy doing so - is that what you're saying. And they run bigger planes with fewer seats than us just because they have some magic formula that all of the WORTHLESS Harvard business school grads can't seem to figure out ???!

Both subsidized as well. Just not as blatantly as the ME carriers. And I have actually flown Lufthansa as was not impressed at all. Same cranky old flight attendants that we have !

Well when you can't even get permission to push back from the gate because there's too many other flights going over your same SID transition what would you call it ?????????????

Word on the grapevine is that United is going to buy JetBlue in order to get their aircraft and pilots.

Gimme a freaking break !!! You REALLY think they got some kind of super secret management juju whereby they can make A380s and 747-8s work on a TENTH the amount of passengers hauled ???? I know none of you have any sense of national pride but cmon ! Yeah the flight attendants treat you great...

Tariffs !

I can only afford to apply that axiom to beer !

As soon as I saw that you're not gonna be using it professionally or for a huge project - DING ! The Harbor Freight light went off.

I know ! When we first came out with that product that's where all the non-revs rode ! Seems like the price difference for these seats is something like $50 bucks. But with summer vacation season in full swing even these seats are getting snatched up. I can't wait for the kiddies to be back to...

What ? You think Emirates management is low paid ? Their management is doing the same thing - just from a comparatively bottomless well.

That always cracks me up when I hear guys say that. I mean unless you have some kind of a REALLY GOOD side gig and I do mean really good - how do you just walk away from $30k a month and 18 days off a month ???????? "Oh well guys I'm just gonna retire at 62 and leave ALL that coin I could've...

Again you can't seem to understand the way the business operates !!! Aircraft cleaners are CONTRACTORS they are NOT part of the airline. They will very likely do any level of cleaning you want FOR A PRICE ! We can only afford to spend X amount on that cleaning because we have to make this thing...

Wow ! Just wow ! You guys have got it easier than ever !

Congratulations on that but wow how does one become a regional F/O without that ?
