Like a hungry vampire, aren’t the majors going to suck the host dry and drop its ematiatef corpse on the ground. How do the regionals survive and where do those hulls go? Who survives and why?

a certain percentage will be coming from other majors, acmi, military, corporate, etc. Its a decent bet that a regional or 2 disappears as the musical chairs continue.
Barring a recession, I’m not sure any regional is safe. Best course seems to be fly your @$$ off if you have the opportunity and grab the first major seniority number you can get, then fly your @$$ off there until you have the experience to get the seniority number from the place you really want to go. If the music stops before you get there, at least you’ll have a seniority number that will eventually be worth something. Not so if your regional goes tango uniform. |

The regionals survive because their FFD customer keeps paying the bills. All depends whether they think it’s good value compared to other options. Changes could happen abruptly as I doubt any regional is meeting its contractual targets currently.
Non-wo 50 seat carriers probably the worst bet |

Hopefully, as soon as United adds capacity to replace Gojet, it'll be just a painful memory. And Aviate will leave hundreds of pilots without their promised flow, and another generation of pilots will learn that all flow is fraud.
