If ex-AirTran FOs will leave SWA in droves for more money, which airlines pay more than SWA? Where will they be going?
You honestly think that SWA rates are going to be top of the heap when DAL and UCAL finish their next contracts? Really? The bottom guys at DAL right now are 7ER FOs. YOu think those rates are going to be below SWA's 737 FO rates? SWA are going right back to where they have always been in the pecking order. But the argument is moot right now. Come back in 2 years and we'll talk. I'll even help you with your app.
