One of our esteemed 717As around here mentioned he still had his Embraer Brasilia 4 day trip pairing from his ASA days and it was the same exact city pairs as he had on 717. JAN, AGS, stuff.

I'll gladly fly those SLC-ABQ/BOI/BZN/PSC kinda routes with the DL contract & seniorty# while awaiting bigger n' better. Shoot, let's keep recapturing and grow this seniority list.
