The contract carriers don't have the backing of a major to prop them up when they start shrinking through attrition. It's hitting Republic now, but it won't be long before more independent regionals are asking their mainline carriers for flight reductions because of inability to staff.
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.

This hurts my brain. Why would a Legacy have any interest in bringing you to fly their Airbus when there is a shortage of guys flying crappy dash 8s and CRJs? As it's said if you want to stay at a regional forever go wholly owned. The flow arrangements are only good for current guys with years seniority a new guy will wait forever.
