Won't cause too much butthurt on the CA side, all the CLE CAs were junior to all the Saab CAs as of the last SSB. A few Saab FOs will have to wait a bit longer for upgrade.

It is hilarious how we can't even get a previous SSB executed before we have to do another...at least this one won't hinder my upgrade unless they shrink any of the Saab bases.

BTW, all of our EAS routes have their contracts up for renewal this summer, IAD, ATL and CLE. Interested to see what they do, since scuttlebutt is that UAL has been asking us to set up shop in IAH to fly the old Colgan Saab routes for some time now. XJT has been running them with E135s since Colgan closed down, and it's supposedly costing UAL big $$$ on fuel burn.

I think we are done in Mississippi and Alabama. Unless we really put forth an effort in the next couple of month, something tell me that we're out as our service sucks and is extremely unreliable.

I can see Houston happening, especially if all we have to do is move existing crews and planes down there and not hire more pilots or acquire more airframes.
