Do we really want to flow back to Compass (now owned by Trans States?). It's not against the guys and gals flying there - that's not it - it's the owners. Ask Trans States guys what they think of working there.
Also, do we essentially want Trans States (or Pinnacle for that matter) deciding who gets hired at Delta Air Lines (which they would be doing with a flow up)?

I'd like to see the flow continued until the folks flow affected get to flow up. There is a finite number of them. Its also the right thing to do.
The flow down kept guys off the street - There is value in that. This better cost the company something if it goes away.
Flowing down to a rotten company is better than flowing down to Burger King. Let the individual furloughee decide if he wants the job when the time comes.
just my opinion
