It's an interesting scenario for sure. If you read some of the threads over in the AA section regarding their contract, they've already got some pretty deep weak spots when compared to UAL/DAL. No minimum calendar day credit? Yeesh. A steady stream of regional pilots willing to vote for worse compensation so they can line up to flow to a mainline carrier that already has contract issues? Nevermind. I'll work somewhere else...
