From what I've heard, Delta gives SkyWest more leeway when it comes to getting their aircraft scheduled in and out of SKW domiciles. They have to make it easier for their pilots. They have the ORD flight so they can get their piltos to and from their domicile. It was liek I was at Mesa, when they started -900 ops out of CLT. There had to be common transfer point destinations in order to get pilots and aircraft shuttled between PHX routes and CLT routes. Do you think Delta was gonna let us (Comair) fly that CVG-SLC route. No way in hell! I don't know why they have such a soft spot for SkyWest?
