Yeah. Just got the same call. I was slated for CRJ, now it looks like it could go either way.
Was also told the new contract is close to going up for vote and pay will probably be significantly increased for first year FOs. I'm assuming this also means a merged seniority list also?

Maybe so but we still have what? Seven years left on the current CPA for 50 seat flying. I'll ride this contract out for seven years. Oh, and if they take the planes guess what! We go with them. I can live on SKY pay. They would be forced to welcome allot of big northeast union guys.

What is this guy smoking? The only place the planes are going is to Kingman, Arizona. The CPA was with Continental. No more Continental, no more CPA. Vapor!

You only go with planes if they are sold directly to another airline. SkyWest Inc. Just has to sell the planes to a bank or Embraer and that separates us from the planes. Then SkyWest or any other airline just has to purchase the planes from the bank/Embraer. That is how Republic got the Q400s from Colgan.

Feel good about yourself! You could be like me and many of my Comair comrades who are on their second or third regional gig. Talk about burnt out!!! At least you have a good schedule!

Is it just me or did anyone else not get the warm and comfy feeling reading the e-mail from the union?

As long as JA is CEO and President of the BOD, he will never combine ASA/XJT with SKW. Forget it, end of story. He will do everything possible to isolate the airline he has spent 40 years building from the ground up at any cost, even at the expense of ASA/XJT. The negotiating is all posturing. No matter what is ever agreed upon, the final result will always be to shrink ASA/XJT out of existence and to maintain SKW.
May as well just say no and get full pay to the last day, and stop the bleeding.
