If Compass forces RAH into a bidding war then the rock bottom prices equal rock bottom contract pay. We're in negotiations and I'd like to not see someone else used as a reason for us to not get top pay.
I dont think New Delta will not let one regional fly one type of airplane. Look how many regionals are flying CR2 and CR7.
I dont know if the CBA that allowed Compass to fly will still exist post merger. If it does then Compass can't be sold until a certain number of new narrow bodies are on property. Its all about money, whoever will save or cost less is what they will do.
Compass is pretty cheap on labor because we are all on 1st year pay.
