FWAAA, industry standard is 76 seats. Both UAL new T/A and DAL scope caps the seating at 76 seats. AA's proposal would be the new upper limit in the industry in seating and weight class.
The 1113c was a gun to our head, and the judge granted it... it's in the company pocket if they choose that route.
Your assessment that APA is micromanaging the company is absurd. To think that you thing that the APA leadership wants to force the company to fly 120 seat aircraft from DFW to places like Waco, and Tyler Texas is ludicrous. No farther commentary is necessary.. You are flat - out to lunch on that.
We're taking about overreaching here again.. The industry standard is 76 seats. We'll see how this week plays out. Either we get 76 seats, or we step into the great unknown.
The carry on bags have become brutal. Sad thing is that they are taking bags away from people that are well within size limits due to the volume of bags.
Another +100000 here...
Here's the deal; with most every carrier now charging for luggage, people are willing to gamble. Worst case scenario, they get stopped at the gate (or door to the A/C), and have to check it. Either way, they've dodged the baggage fee. So now, not only do you have a logistics issue, you also have customer service & revenue leakage issues as well.
I don't understand why the airlines haven't picked up on this. Seems gate checking bags are regular occurrences at BOS and MIA for AA, they should be charging the people for them. A premium should be charged to 1) discourage the behavior 2) reflect the added cost and delay to departure time it imposes on ramp and gate agents. The agents at AA seem to encourage it, just before boarding they make an announcement inviting people to bring items forward, and there are no scales at the gates and rarely see them use the bag sizers. Kev, what happened to the carry on tag bags DL used to use? Haven't seen them in ages.
