Just speculation, but:

Transition classes cx thru may isn’t great news, but not “bad news.”

Delta need us flying that side to the end, and we actually got some new hires we need to get thru the two sims we have left. Guys going for the early transition won’t have a chance to forfeit their 20k bonus and will have to stay till the flush bid.

...and Chicago will go to AW (closes ORD base for XJT). Just reading the cards in the press releases in front of me. It’s just ironic that we would take the hit in ORD since Republic and Mesa have been involved in the latest press-related shenanigans.

I wonder if the person who used to post that info on the company website left for greener pastures.

They stopped posting the bad news long ago.

My pure speculation about the “bad news”. CRJ pilots lost the grievance about being able to displace ERJ pilots.
Personally as a CRJ guy I see the point to having the fences in place initially, so if that is the bad news I can think of much worse things to worry about.

Having a lopsided integration wasn’t good enough? Y’all want to displace people, too? Humility isn’t a strong suit over there, is it?
(You seem to be an exception to that, Blackhawk FWIW)
