We currently have a minor league system, what you want is a national, or brand, seniority list.

If you think they should, the entry point could be determined.
If you think they shouldn’t, they enter with everyone else.
If you think the size of the industry is much smaller post-COVID,the Cessna folks might not get in the door at all.
None of this really argues for or against a common list — just implementation details.

Also Sacramento and Omaha later in the month. But you go ahead with your version.

Check the loads on your flights, can a regional jet be substituted at a cheaper cost? 100% certain it can. This will make more sense for you Oct 1st.
As for the October 1st comment......classy.
