If they have to sell them do they go by auction or do the companies get to sell them to whom they want? What is to stop Delta from selling them to USAir and vice-versa?

Bump. Was wondering the same thing myself.

Carry on.

ATI is still flying them. Saw one at LAX the other day.

So with the slot swap likely to be finalized I'm thinking the next AE will have 2 new categories and a 365 day conversion window. I'm betting on DTW 737 & NYC 320.

I think you're right and we will see the MEM base displaced, but where will the 737 time come from?

Its almost gotta be CVG. I can't imagine where else.

I think you're correct. I just didn't want to be the one to write it! Too many CVG - DTW commuters as it is and this would just make it that much worse.

I guess the company could just go ahead and pull the bandaid off of the scab quickly and close both MEM and CVG as pilot bases at the same time.
