I feel bad for you all!!! I was hoping that the Arbitrator would rule on Scope because the Company "allowed" it to be negotiated. But SNAFU, the Arbitrators still won't rule on something that they deem a business decision. You all are going to have to be ready to walk for Scope on the next go around in 2020. I see QX 175s carrying 88 seats soon. SkyWest can't unless they want to lose their contract with United. Our Scope section doesn't allow for any regional partner to possess any jets with more than 76 seats. Regardless of who they fly them for.

Arbitration went exactly like I expected. The only reason I made the comment about pay being fair is because it’s the ONLY thing we didn’t completely lose out on. It’s still not what we deserve. Scope is the big one and we didn’t get one drop of it, so what comes next is going to be really terrifying.
If anything it’s the retirement that wasn’t awful. We go to 15% tomorrow and 15.5% Jan 1.

Not just UAL, DAL has a similar provision. Not happening... with SKW, I guess there's always great lakes, they'd love some jets.

In that regard, I am not panicking. The most realistic scenario is for AAG to breathe fresh air into Horizon and up seating capacity but without pilots, you are just going to disappoint more people.

Regional staffing is only just starting to fray at the edges, SKW has already bitten off more than it will be able to chew in a couple of years.
