Wont be DFW. Enter AA 319 for that gap.

Move on.

Eagle would move their 700's there before opening a new base for PSa.

perhaps they would CLT/PHL for us, and they shift Mesa to mostly all PHX & LAX based stuff. who knows.

No wait! I bet TYS will see the larger aircraft.

My guess is a DCA base. And the closure of TYS.

*like like dca or lga base!!!!! Forget bigger planes! Most likely any planes would be for a 200 replacement. I wouldn't get too excited.

I agree, I think the -200s will get replaced before we see expansion. then again, I hear heresay stuff that our -200 contract is up in 2018 or something like that? so would they just leave those in till 18?

The contract that PSA Airlines has with US Airways has no meaning. Management hasn't even started talking to your union and you are already salivating at bigger airplanes. WOW, you won't be getting paid more to fly those, likely you will make less to fly larger airplanes. You just signed a contract and management will be looking for concessions as of this week.

I guess you missed point that RAH has 47 E175s starting next month for AA and they will be mainly based in ORD. You can salivate all you want about replacing other regionals flying, you guys just signed a contract and we shall see if you agree to concessions less than 6 months later while your new parent company is likely to report around 500 million in profits (AMR and LCC). We will know tomorrow when US Airways reports 2nd QT numbers. But please don't salivate other flying currently done by another pilot group. This is the time to stand your ground. Make management manage and not whipsaw and make money out of the employees.
