Ditto… hell to the NO on anyone flying SWA passengers other than the pilots on the SWAPA Master Seniority List. That’s a hard line in the sand.

I also don’t see us buying AS. But then again, I’ve been wrong and surprised before.

Anyone remember the CRJs that were operating for AirTran when the purchase was announced? Yeah, and how long did that last?

If what the kool-aid peddlers are selling during recurrent briefs about hiring (120 FOs a month for 18 months starting Jan) is true, I don’t see a merger.

I want no give on scope.

While I agree with you about SWA pilots flying SWA pax, there is president. I Flew SWA pax while working for ATA and SWA flew ATA pax. There was code share to Hawaii long before SWA did it themselves.

You need to be an English professor to know the difference between president and precedent? Sure. Or maybe just had to pay a little attention in 6th or 7th grade.

Nottellin,

The ATA codeshare was the wake up call for SWA Pilots. Luckily we were able to get the changes we wanted.
