Is it just me or are rumors about merging with Envoy becoming more prevalent? I have a terrible feeling this would mess up our seniority/flow bad.

The rumor about getting shiny new 175’s eventually way down the road makes more sense when combined with the merging rumor.

Love it. But I do not want to merge with those guys

If people are talking about a merge with Envoy, why not a merge with PSA too? What would the logic be behind merging two of the WO and not the third? If consolidation is the name of the game, why would they not go all the way?
Aint happenin! And they can keep their 175s too. No regional should be flying anything bigger than 50 seats and every regional pilot should recognize that. Guess that ship sailed a long time ago, though

More than likely. Not too much to talk about except numbers, otherwise not really worth going.
