Maybe my use of overstaffed is not quite accurate. Short work months have been available for the last for months for a few guys. However, with swapping HNL for BKK and adding TAO and probably SGN in July, we will very quickly be short again.
Rumor control from the X side has been saying that the long term plan is for us to do all of the 767 flying from NRT and the ANA boys will pick up the new HND international flying. To be absolutely honest, I don't think anyone knows what is going to happen in the next few months.....even the Japanese management.
But, I think they are planning on expansion and since it takes about 9 months to get guys from indoc to the line, you have to start early. That's my take on it at least.
I had 2 dinners tonight
