The paradigm of how the "gold" is distributed will either change or the airlines mentioned will fold.

Edit: I would also like to add that we have had it with our respective union representation and our now uniting through forums and social media to take a stand not only against the company but the unions endorsing these TA's.
Yep, it would be really difficult to shut all of those places down and move all of that flying elsewhere if everyone stands together.

As someone that will hopefully join the regional game soon, I definitely support everyone and wish you all the best .
