Overshoot from the Skywest forum...?

That would be my guess anyway.

Former compass pilots are forced to wait it out or quit and risk losing out on the flow to Delta

So basically, you just described Propel. :D

That was a good one!

I predict the Delta flying doesn’t change for CP in 2019 and I wouldn’t be shocked if it didn’t change in 2020 either.

This just in per the email! Compass will cease to exist at some point in the future. We need to find Michael J Fox and send him back to the Future to prevent Delta selling us to hulas

UA (under the guise of a ManaAir like entity) buys TSH. CP is sold off to DL. CP trades the AA flying to RP for their DL flying.

This gets DL down to 3 DCI carriers, and preserves the awesomeness that is CP.

Come on, it’s not as unlikely as the CRJ550!

Except the 3 carriers are endeavor Skywest and republic

FWIW, the only carrier that Ed said was going away in that video was GoJet. He didn't say which other regional was on its way out.

BB is more interested in his flight school than his airline, so who knows?

This absolutely makes the most sense, but what other scenarios are there? I can’t think that DL likes being in bed with UA and AA on the whole YX thing. If they could get their LGA gates and run, I believe they would do it in a heartbeat.

Although I still want to see YX and CP merged so they can use the Brick-a$$ callsign!

I'm still not counting out Compass yet. Delta is too savvy to let SkyWest have everything west of the Mississippi to themselves.

Apparently the latest video mentioned going back to not spreading out there regionals. Its causing downline delays... getting each carrier focused on one region for better completion, on-time and spare utilization..

meh, compass is cheap and their performance numbers are on the rise. if Delta wants to spend the money to shift the flying around then they can do it, if they don't, then they won't.

Anyone listen in on the all employee meeting today and have any juices information to share?

Not much today. The not so juicy rundown is below...

- Good performance. Best in 13 months.
- OJI Injuries are the metric that is rough right now. Something about a mechanic trying to stop a runaway tire.
- AA route map makes mx much easier
- DL route map involves trips where planes don't touch mx base for 6-7 days. Compass made a chart showing this compared to other DCI carriers and is bringing it to DL next week for a DCI meeting in ATL....I believe.
- Alot of people were away today and not too many bad metrics so not too much to go over.
- FAs have alot of classes starting up this month


I left after about 30min. I believe they were opening it up the questions.

I think the person who goes over the new cities served was away so that part (my personal favorite) was missing.

Come on now, we are flowing into the 321. Still has the new car smell!

Quickest way for us to lose our DL contract is to start canceling flights for FAs. We all need to pitch in and get them a Costco size package of Emergen-C.

Going from the Jungle Bus to the Baby Bus. I guess Delta got their way on scope in the pilot contract that's under negotiations! :eek:

You heard it here first! :D

Yep and I hear United mainline is going to merge TSA on their list so they can trade the 145XRs for MRJs!!!!

Everybody at TSH to mainline carriers except Blowjetzz because everyone hates them anyway :p:p:p
