The company is bidding on every RFP. The idea that they don't is former mgmt and ALPA fear tactics. But we won't bid at a loss. Also, when it comes to making choices on which cpas to honor, we will fly the profitable ones. This from the one who makes those decisions and has notified ml of our position.

There are cpas that aren't profitable and they will be allowed to expire and rebid for at greater rates.

But something that was in the call but NOT in the press release is at the 10 min mark:

37 ERJ145s will be removed in the last half of 2015.

That would make 94 145s and 9 135s in approx one year.

But it's still old news. It seems like the news of ERJs being parked makes you happy.

Nobody has time for conjecture and hearsay. Guys have families to think about.

Don't make decisions based on some management person or union guy's "possibilities". Till now ZERO facts have been presented about our future, if a better opportunity presents itself...go and dont look back.

Maybe so but you keep repeating this over and over again. Why?

Does anyone know what employee number to use for jumpseating US Air mainline? They said its a 6 digit number only for CASS and the union hasn't gotten back to me so I'm trying here as a last ditch effort before it leaves the gate. In the past they have dropped one or two digits off the 70XXXXX number but this time it's a new gate agent and they don't know.

For me, "0XXXXX" has always worked on US Airways. But, it has been a couple of years since I tried to jumpseat on Us Air.
