I actually do. Because it's crazy, but regionals are crazy.
I think cost will prevail in the end and we're cheaper than the other guys. The Mesa model! But, who knows. If we go byebye for DL, it won't be the crews fault. It will be on MX and TSH, unfortunately.
If the jets don't end up in the desert, they will have the same issues for the new owner, however they may be willing to pour some dollars into refurbishment and preventative MX...

Customers buy tickets to get from A to B with zero disruptions expected. Compass delaying/canceling flights are disruptions leading to disgruntled customers aka lost profit/business. That’s a start for ya. Delta’s business model is a complete contrast to AA and UA, thus buying the weaker regional doesn’t work for them.

Normally I get annoyed when the snack basket Memes derail the conversation, but now is a good time

And there it is in the email. Big news today. We're losing Delta, but word around the campfire is gaining United.
