Many of you are now making the same argument that the ASA and CMR MECs made back in 2000. If Frontier, CHQ, Republic, Shuttle, and Lynx are a single air carrier, then weren't ASA, CMR, and Delta a single carrier? Wouldn't that make DAL and CMR a single carrier now?
If DALPA filed a grievance on this issue, and I were management, I would use the DALPA response to the ASA/CMR PID filing as evidence against the grievance....
