You're saying a regional providing feed for a mainline is fine, but if there's a flow between them, suddenly it becomes disgusting?

How does PSA fit in your scenario? They are in the top third in pay right now, and have SAP for lineholders.

I say drop all scope. I think it will be fun to work at southern flying United planes, or at ATI doing it. Just imagine if the majors could whipsaw acmi against each other to provide cheap lift. The majors would drastically limit their risk with less employees and planes all while having the ability to whipsaw. It’s a win win... for the airlines.
This was only meant to be sarcasm, if an airline wants to use a plane with its paint it should be on their certificate operated by their pilots and FAs.

"All regional flying should be done by mainline" -Average regional pilot
"We will never sell scope" -80% of mainline pilots
"Give us $2 an hour and we'll think about it" -top 20% seniority mainline pilots.
