Don't know enough about it for a grievance opinion, why I was asking the expert. Well, that and making sure I'm not slipping over the conspiracy theorists ledge.

Several possibilities:

ie=> reserve pilots in category come before out of base white slips.

Or maybe instead of having a company name we can change our logo to an upside down widget and be known as The Airline Formerally Known As Delta.

This GoJet announcement really grinds my gears.
