I always thought a good idea would be to take all DCI alpa carriers and merge them DOH and then take that list and staple it to the bottom. Those regional captains would not lose their seats unless they chose to bid FO on a mainline aircraft for a 10 year period.

The problem lies in companies like ASA and PInnacle that fly for more than just Delta, how do you combine them? A seniority bid?

What are your guys thoughts at mainline on this matter?
All questions that need to be grappled with.

It would be just speculation, and frankly probably not wise to comment.

Who knows what would show up in a SLI hearing.
