Yea, what the above poster said. If ASA gives up the S3 boarding to Delta on ASA flights we'll never get it back. The furloughed pilots will come back and get their benefits. If you are so hell bent on leaving ASA then why not just talk to a chief pilot when you need to fly anywhere, for an interview or whatever, and I'm sure they can help you out...
