It's really quite simple. As long as regionals can provide lift cheaper than mainline (and even with our bonuses we cost a drop in the bucket compared to mainline) they will exist in full force. As soon as they can't provide the lift (staffing), or are more expensive, it will move to DL.

Not sour grapes. Delta has already laid out all of the facts. It is all there. Just look at it.
Regionals that provide lift for Delta need to seriously look at what is happening.
Delta will only take pilots that are "Delta material". If you don't have a 4 year degree, with a few dozen carrier landings, then you will not work at Delta.

Both the Union and the company have repeatedly said that the bonus will continue past 2018, right now there is just a disagreement in how it will continue. The Union wants it rolled into the pay rates, the company wants to extend the bonus.
The sky is not falling, quite the contrary. Endeavor is probably the best place to be right now. Pay that no one can come close to, 12 month upgrade, and pretty good contract provisions.

And who exactly do you think their alliance is too. Clue, think puppet and and strings. Just because Endeavor management is in MSP doesn't mean they're off on their own island. For God's sake, while we are not Delta, we are an extension of Delta. Always have been. Weather we were Mesaba/Pinnacle, or Endeavor. Pinneacle and Mesaba management just simply followed the orders of mainline weather it was Northwest or Delta. Where regionals have an advantage (non wholly owned) like Skywest or Republic is the ability to be self sufficient. Meaning financing the airframes themselves. If mainline can keep some of these investments off their books it gives them a better credit rating and more buying power for the bigger stuff

Lunacy. No facts are laid out. Two months ago Endeavor was getting ready to take on 700's and now has a program in place to get them flying at Endeavor on short notice. A month after that they were working on an Embraer program, all of these came down from the mothership. You think Delta knows what is going to happen in 3 years when they don't even know who will be flying their planes next month? They are in panic mode over regional flying - if Delta regional flying doesn't all end up at mainline in 3 years then most likely it will all be left at Skywest and Endeavor. Bringing up Comair as still relevant to this conversation shows how out of touch with reality you are.
