I'd expect the trend of mainline and wholly owned regionals taking back flying from contract carriers to grow. You'd be better off at Endeavor when this shakeup and inevitable consolidation occurs.

Wholly owned is the only way to go. Compass, Republic, CommutAir have all requested to have their block hour reduced because they cant staff the flying. Mesa has a shortage of F/As leading to many cancellations and Envoy is having to cover some of the flying...
