Cheers to the "juicy" rumors! Before this spirals out of control , allow me to state some facts to the best of my knowledge....

1) Comair has not officially stopped furloughing--however, no additional furloughs have been announced...yet. My guess is this is a result of the pending "early out" programs that are currently still open. Look for some sort of announcement after this window closes (positive or negative).

2) Mesa is still flying for Delta. Mesa is under contract to fly for Delta until at least 2011. While that could change tomorrow, I don't see Mesa going anywhere, unless a BK filing is in their future (April maybe?).

3) Delta has informed Comair, per J.B., that they are reducing our overall flying by 1.5% in 2009. Remember this came after we were originally told that no flying would be reduced.

All this is subject to Delta changing their mind on things...which we all know never happens....
