Looks like Oct 15th, the 200 is going to be flying to Aberdeen. Pretty soon no more Saab flying will be left...

From a Delta planning person chit chatting on an airplane - Mesaba should expect hard times through the rest of this year and first half of next year, but by next fall things will be improving substantially.

Take it with a grain of salt. Hang on for the ride.

Can you be more specific. Did he say how things will improve substantially next Fall?

It'd be nice to know that's what will happen, but Delta can't even predict next fall.

I can't be more specific because they couldn't be more specific. I took it as we may be parking more Saabs/furloughing more, but by next fall replacing them.

Anyone else heard anything about possibly replacing uniforms next January when merger completes? Just something else that's floating around.

Next fall... Mesaba hasn't been able to predict next week since the merger.
