Just to add my $.02 ...

I agree 100% that the Q's will more than likely not be going to IAH anymore. If they were, management would not have come out with a memo that, in a nutshell said, "Rumor spreading regarding the Q's not coming to IAH anymore ... Meeting with Co-nited this Friday ... Update to come soon". They would have simply said, "this is rumor, they will still be coming to IAH" end of story.

I figured when the Co-nited merger happened it could literally change everything. We (9L) are one of the only regionals (yes, there are a few others) that operates almost exclusively for both airlines (yes, USAirways is there too, but not a huge competitor). So, they could pretty much rearrange our entire route system if they wanted to with us being the only operator of the Q-400 aircraft for both airlines.

I'll be very interested to see what comes of this next week!!
