If that mythical contract is ever announced, then possibly.

They already had, and closed a ATL base... But they had and closed a IAH base before also. (Then reopened it) .. So you never know...

Because SkyWest Inc. owns ExpressJet, theoretically how hard would it be for SkyWest Inc to turn the C Lounge into a joint lounge between ASA and SKW pilots in the future? We've mixed pilot groups before in IAD. And I assume SkyWest Inc has been writing the rent checks for the C Lounge already so it wouldn't seem that far fetched if they wanted to open a base in ATL for their pilots.

The Holy Mormon Air Force would never allow their pilots to share a lounge and mix with union stooges. More likely would be ASA returning to the Eastern Air Lines lounge we vacated years ago and the HMAF taking our new one.

The real question is how many FOs jump ship to try and make ATL base with 175s

Or they could just make it easy and merge the companies (I know I know, union vs non union. Just sayin).

Yeah that would make the most since. Good luck us voting or the union. Though it's ironic that the regional airline that seems to be in the best shape is the only one without a union...

It sure is. It was foolish of skywest to purchase unionized labor in the first place. Now they have a bunch of pilots they can't use while they try like hell to hire on their side for the 175's they have coming.
