Our next contract is up in 2015 and is the IAD flying. After that our Delta contracts go until 2020 or later. If we lose anymore it will be because of performance breaking the contract (possible this summer) or we agree to a 2 for one type deal.
I've always believed in the rate reset but called a rep last week to ask some questions about negotiations etc. He said that is just a rumor and scare tactic. Not sure if I believe him.
As of last week Pinnacle will have no CR2's. where did you hear this? I'm guessing a crew room rumor.
Remember that was the first wave, Delta still has to deploy 30 CRJ 900 they have options for as well as the rest of the 88 B-717 they have leased, that could be what he is implying as far as the airplanes leaving in 2015.
