How does shifting put a new spin on month to month vacation weeks? Maybe there’s TFP on the table for you to pick up. 

He also adds key context and backstory to the announcement of the China Airlines partnership. What’s changed behind the scenes to finally kick airline partnerships into gear? What’s the connection between your CBA’s Section 1 language and the Company’s push for low-cost revenue?  And most importantly, what does this mean to you as a Southwest Pilot? Listen in and find out.
