You bet, so why not hope to be bought up by a major instead? None of the Frontier pilots I know want to be a part of republic. The question is, is there a major airline willing to jump on this firesale during a bad economy? Probably not. I'm just hoping we(DAL) find a way to dump Republic then bring Compass onto our list, maybe that's wishful thinking?? Good luck to the Frontier and Midwest pilots.
