If this deal was so great and is going to save compass as we know it, then why not release the info and stop the hemorrhaging like Billy Mays on a FlexSeal commercial

. I feel like we are being treated like a bunch of children, and maybe its because I myself am a child and I just dont understand the process.
This is the regionals. Somebody is being whipsawed.
Either Compass and some other company are being played against each other and the issue is not entirely decided or Compass management is keeping the drama going
to distract us from the fact that the two year extension to the pilot contract is almost up.
Case one would have whatever major is involved letting Compass and whoever currently has the flying (Mesa would be my guess since they also have contracts expiring) undercut one another to the maximum extent possible and eventually go with the deal most advantageous to that major.
Case two would have Compass keep up the drama to the point where the pilot group will happily sign an extension of the current terms just to keep our jobs, not noticing in the prices that we are now lagging behind several other pilot groups.
Now I’m not psychic. I suppose it’s possible for some third option, like we split in two and those whose flying is being phased out leave Compass to become startup cadre for Moxy, but I doubt it.
In the meantime, getting apps out is still good practice. And who knows, you might get lucky and get a nibble from someplace you really would like to spend your life. And the signup bonuses - especially if you are DEC or Near-DEC eligible, are getting mighty tempting. And class dates for those can be chosen conveniently far out that you can always cancel out if TSH actually does strike gold somehow.
Two can play this whipsaw game.
