Not to stir the pot anymore but I flew with a captain last week who said in his ground class the FAA Ramp Tower controller said that concourse C was only going to be empty for 1 month until someone else was going to occupy the space. He said the guy would not say who but only that they operated RJ's (Obviously since it is a RJ only space.) "Why would the FAA guy lie? He has no dog in the fight"(direct quote from the captain!)

Nah, I don't think so, unless Delta is going to kick Continental Express out to the C terminal.

I don't even think the FAA staffs the ramp towers. Those are Delta/Comair folks.

I bet Everyone that operates RJs from T-1 will go to Concourse C. Also, Skywest, Continental, and Freedom. They are building a very nice bus stop outside security to transport people somewhere and I believe C is the only place to go with that.

No one operates from T-1 any more, other than Fed Ex Parks there. U.S. Airways was the last to operate out of there and they moved to T-2 in April of 2007. All DCI carriers will operate from A and B terms.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong. If there's a merger in which the Comair name/company is maintained, don't they have to recall the guys that were furlough if the "new" company ends up with people junior to them?. And what if they other company is the one standing?, wouldn't it be the same case?.
Here's something that's floated around for a while. There might be a "merger" with Mesaba, in which that'll be the name retained. And with Mesaba just because their operating costs are lower than Comair's. Now, with it does happen, would that nulify the Comair contract?. If so, then it makes sense. If it doesn't, then what's the point?.
Personally with either scenario, I don't forsee a recall for those of us furlough for quite sometime. Time to move on.
