There’s significant savings by keeping the majority of the seniority pools at both airlines under 6 years old, a merger might bring that number up a few years.
Coming to Piedmont is very risky in both the short term and long term, relatively speaking in comparison to PSA and ENY.
AAG all ready tried the Comair 2.0 thing at Envoy. It cost them dearly. They lost nearly 1,500 pilots because of it and I guarantee right now they wish they had all 1500 back.
The moment they even hint at an eventual shutdown they’d lose so many pilots they’d be forced to shut it down immediately or just merge in with Envoy.
