Well union rant aside, SkyWest should at worst hold the line. Delta got what a 12% increase?, our CEO and management pay has made year over year continual increases, why should our trend reverse? We need greater than a 1%-2% increase to keep up with inflation. They know their saving grace at reducing costs is pulling CRJ200's offline and replacing them with more efficient super RJs. That was worth investing +$12,000,000,000.00. They can come at us all day long saying that new contracts depend on our concessions, but truth be told they will ink a new deal with or without them.

?"Maybe YOU (not we?) should work together"?. When did anyone express contentious or mean spirited anything towards ASA/Xjet? Did I miss something? Maybe it was somewhere in that thread/youtube clip when some random pilot video recorded a SkyWest pilot helping bring down valet bags and mocked him for it. Or maybe it was one of those times on these threads where after positive news happens at SkyWest we are wisely tempered with: "your one CEO away from blah blah", "you guys think your crap is better", "kool-aid drinkers!", "every regional sucks, you're time will come", "I swear somewhere, sometime, some SkyWest guy said he was mainline". Gee I never knew that being proud/satisfied/content with where one works equates to being delusional/arrogant/snobby.
