Man, Delta could save a LOT of money by firing every high level executive and replacing them with all the Skywest pilots trolling this thread w/ business minors from Liberty University online, who have clearly far superior knowledge of this industry and this business.

The only thing that stays the same in this industry is that nothing ever stays the same.
Remember when Delta techops in SEA came onboard as our MX provider to get ready for this.... and then quit?
https://news.delta.com/embraer-190-what-you-should-know
"Bem-vinda in 2016 – The E190, which will arrive from Boeing, are expected in the fourth quarter of 2016. As with any new fleet type, training in Flight Ops, In-Flight, ACS and TechOps needs time to ramp up to successfully bring the new jet type into the fleet. Delta plans to source additional E190s in the marketplace following ratification of the pilot tentative agreement."

Pepperidge Farm remembers. 20 E190s! Delta had announced it!

Remember before that when we were supposed to get the 3 170s from Republic, and they spent the entire refurbishment budget on the first one and sent them all off to the desert? Pepperidge Farm remembers. (Too bad because 9 170s would have made a lot more sense than having 6)

Delta changes their mind ALL THE TIME. What's to say they aren't deep in negotiations with Hulas and leaked this video to encourage him to sell at rock bottom price? I've spent 4 years hearing about how Delta isn't going to renew us and how Envoy is going to get all of our planes. Past a certain point you get over it and stop caring.
Compass pilots will be just fine if they do announce something. We will know the fate of the Delta agreement soon enough.

Very well said. I don't need to speed up the graying of my hair so I stopped worrying about this kind of stuff awhile ago.

I do in fact have an update as my committee has heard and fielded many of your concerns regarding the renewing of our snack basket contracts

To: Compass Pilots
Subject: Snack Basket Contracts 2020
From: MEC Chairman, Snack Basket Committee, CA-in-training BobbyLeeSwagger
Date: 1/6/18

To my fellow Compass Aviators:

Your snack basket committee is hard at work behind the scenes as we have been attempting to renegotiate our catering contracts. Surprisingly and unfortunately, this has spilled over into a larger discussion between FFD carriers as to how our snack baskets might be divided up were we to fail. Some in the industry would posit that the customer complaints are symptomatic of a larger need to consolidate our snack baskets with other carriers. They envision our stoopwaffles going to YX, our popcorn to OO, and our belgian waffles to 9E.

However, we believe that this fear-mongering has no place in our snack baskets. Although our company has remained silent on the issue, we are confident our position is strong in 2019. We have a unique product among our peers which can't be easily replaced. Delta knows this and we are certain they will deliver an extension.

We want you to be aware, however, that there is always a chance we might have to make certain contractual concessions, pardon the pun, without a union vote in order to keep our costs down in anticipation of securing a deal. We trust you understand the delicateness of the situation and need you to do your part on the line. Keep the seats down, straps loose, and the leftover baskets available to the next crew. Meanwhile, I will personally keep you updated of the situation with the contracts, unless of course, I were to get an interview somewhere. In that case, my full attention would be on the success of myself. You understand..

Until then,

Eat snacks and fly your contract
