The company filed a "Motion to Authorize Entry into 1110 Agreements and Stipulations Extending Time to Comply with Section 1110 of the Bankruptcy Code" (Docket #535). In the motion, this is what the company said:

"20. To date, the Debtors have been unable to conclude any consensual agreements with Aircraft Creditors because they have been fully engaged in addressing other issues critical to their reorganization efforts, including analyzing their fleet requirements and the many Aircraft Agreements. Until the Debtors’ analysis of their fleet requirements, and each of the Aircraft Agreements, has been completed, the Debtors simply will not know which Aircraft Equipment they will seek to retain and which Aircraft Equipment is covered by section 1110 of the Bankruptcy Code."

sounds like they are executing the transformation plan with the skill of a surgeon.
like as the last time , they really didn't have a plan...duh..
 
I could be wrong, and probably am, but it seems to me that when I read the original USAirways Today that announced our paycuts it stated that there would be a 21% paycut, an outsourcing of heavy maintenance, and a reduction in fleet. So doesn't the company already know what equipment they're planning on keeping?
On another note, on the February schedule we're supposed to have an increase in all these E170 flights across the system. For example, DFW is picking up 3 DCA, and supposedly soon after we're getting 3 LGA and 3 BOS (I think). Do we currently have enough RJ's in the system to support all these new flights on the schedule change; or is Bombardier planning on resuming delivery again? :blink:
 
Don't forget there's alot of planes coming out of PIT. Some routes out of PIT that had become MAA are discontinued altogether, so that's likely where the E170s are coming from. There are also some that returned to full-blown mainline from MAA (PHL-ATL for example).
