The only reason we are doing it is because we are cheaper than mainline crews. This is a cost savings measure, nothing else and should be looked on as a bad thing. More regional flying means less mainline flying which means we work longer for significantly less pay, less qol and less retirement/vacation.
Couple all of that with AA stock being at an all time low today and I see very little to be excited about.
Read the article I posted. We're bringing all our short term storage planes out of storage to put them back to work. Part of that is because we're going to cover mainline flying as you say... but we're the only regional feeder that's getting the green light too. WE will be busy. But if mainline and all the other AA regionals are sitting on the sideline, I'd hardly call the industry bouncing back like that doofus is posting.
