So I guess Skywest was joking about getting rid of all 145s in 2 years and all furloughed XJT guys will be offered jobs with full longevity and seniority over at an airline with a completely separate seniority list. Good to hear.

As of today, L-XJT ceases to exist after 2017, and L-ASA ceases to exist after 2021. Plus the next DAL "rate reset" is September 2015. The lowball offers on that are GoJets and Endeavor.

I don't see the rosy future you do.

They woke up and realized that no major airline wants to hire them. There for, their lives suck and they need to make everyone feel the same way.

ALPA email stated that the arbitrator would render a decision at earliest around Christmas and at latest around mid to late January.

Here's a big elephant in the room for you.

The L- guys have repeatedly argued on this forum that the balance sheet issue is not our contract but our performance numbers. After a little mgmt. re-arranging, our numbers and our revenue ( as well as the stock price) are all moving up... I hate when they are right.
