Those 6 routes are not "struck" work.
No I think that is incorrect. First of all 3 of those 6 are DAL owned regionals so if one strikes, the other should respect the strike as all 3 are ALPA members. Only one likely to continue to fly will be SkyWest since they are non union. If SkyWest strikes, then the rest of the DCI should respect that also to support SkyWest pilots. Chautauqua pilots are Teamsters members and not ALPA so can't say how they will act.
At any case 6 will be down to 4 soon as 2 of those, Mesa and Chautauqua will be dropped by DAL soon, according to most people.
