I've said it before and I'll say it again....it's gonna go down like this:
-Start putting lines in IAD and ATL
-Remove lines from outstations slowly
-Wait for pilots to pref bid to IAD and ATL
-???
-Profit
Literally profit.
Contract says otherwise. Slowly shifting lines from out stations to hubs is changing staffing levels, and closing a status means they have to run one. There will be many grievances filed to stop the company from doing what you describe, and the lawyers will have lots of fun. I agree that they would love to do it they way you say they will, but they won't get away with it. Re: sections 9.B and 9.D
