We have a winner! I can't believe you guys are all in shock over this. Seriously, Bedford was investing in these companies because he's a nice guy, nonsense! He is a shrewd businessman and hasn't lent a dollar that doesn't have collateral with something he wants.

said Bryan Bedford, chairman, president and CEO of Republic Airways. “Adding Frontier to the Republic portfolio of operating companies is an opportunity for both companies to build on recent successes and strengthen the Republic organization for the benefit of all stakeholders.”

Get it, that's who he works for, he's doing his job!

To all those dragging pay up AGAIN, and AGAIN! Give us a shot at negotiating a contract here. If anything this gives us even more leverage to bargain the chips higher. Will they be frontier rates, don't know. Frontier has been able to make money with the rates they are operating under so maybe that gives us a chance of seeing something real. And for god sake if we get something good hammered out, stay at your own crappy airline, we have enough problems.
