We had a decrease in ODAN’s. We will be monitoring this in future months. The reserve numbers are higher than we expected.  We voiced our disdain to the Company, as did all other bases.

We will start to see some seasonal flying return at the end of the month with BCN, EDI, and LIS return the last week of March. In addition the 2nd LHR will return on March 29th.  Please keep in mind that on March 28th MAN is going from the B787 to B767 and AMS from the B787 to A330-200.  ZRH will continue to operate on the B787.  The B787 will also operate domestically in March.

When bidding for March, please keep the following dates in mind:

March 8th US daylight savings
March 29th daylight savings rest of the world.
