Then essentially everyone will be taking a payout in 2016 and I'm assuming this was the concession taken during bankruptcy.

The 60 larger RJs are great but when you guys have 150 Erjs that can potentially be parked, then it's not all too exciting. I do like the furlough protection and the 50% of new hires at AA if you guys do furlough.

There's a video of Kirby talking about the wholly owned airlines and how we need to match pinnacle rates to stay competitive. They're dangling the flow thru but didn't the flow at eagle take about a decade??

Either way, I hope Eagle/PSA/PDT MECs are in talks and stay strong together!

It's one thing to be bankrupted and ask for concessions, it's another to be making record profits and wanting to make even higher profit off of their least appreciated, underpaid and overworked regional divisions.
I am not sure that we are on the same page. If you read my post again read it as above the line was the proposal made by management that as someone mentioned and i put on my post we never saw and all we got was bullet points from our union. Below the line they are in sequential order describing what we have today compared to what they are offering. Hope that help!

The matching is not just any regional. They have to have 150 airframes or more and meet other requirements. Currently the only regionals that meet the criteria are SKW, EXJ, RAH & Pinnacle.
