It's more epensive to fly international so it makes financial sense to have the contract carriers do it. Don't forget Republic and Air Whisky loaned a combined 70 million to airways. I would expect any additional flying to go to them first, if at all possible. Not to mention, if PSA were to have a net gain in airframes, J for J would be back on the table. Neither the pilot group or management wants that to happen. Regardless of who gets additional flying, if anyone, these companies are going to have a hard time going from having people furloughed to staffing additional airframes in the time frame airways is going to want. Thats just my worthless opinion. You are all dumber for having read it.
