United ALPA sends out this message.



So obviously scope relief isn't going to happen anytime soon. At least not by the time the DAL and AA contracts are up.

Let's say UAL awards the GoJet flying to XJT with the bigger planes.

That's 25 planes.

That leaves the CRJ side with 25 planes flying.

That's the big payoff? That's what people are waiting for?

Am I smoking crack if that sounds good to me?

Or are the holding out for the big announcement pilots still sticking to the pie in the sky UA buying XJT and everyone flows or some baloney thing?

Just trying to follow here what we're all getting excited about.
Nobody is getting excited about just another CPA, which Skywest would probably just take away a year later anyways.

It’s about getting out of SkyWest’s control. rumored to become a wholly owned or something like it again, and possibly also merged with another regional or two.

Given Kirby’s background and some rumors heard, a flow may also be in the works. Maybe. I think this is more wishful thinking at this point but one can hope.

All of that means growth, rather than doom and gloom and shrinkage. It’s a turnaround for the airline.
