Three words that should never be said in a legitimate post.

While I don't think Comair will "grow" much, if at all out of this LGA deal, at the same time, I don't think Delta has any idea what their final schedule will be out of LGA--assuming it even gets government approval. Remember, this exchange is not due to get the go ahead until early 2010. With that said, we are looking at the summer schedule of 2010, at the earliest, for any potential change in our schedule.

A banned single poster from Algeria looks fishy? To think I was just about to give him my SSN, bank routing numbers and naked pics of my GF...

Default LGA flying...

Not to ruin any hope, but what I've heard is that the extra flying in LGA is not for Comair. DL would most likely put ERJ in there and then move us around to fill the gap. Like they said, we are DL reserve airline.

Since when do we start hedging our bets on what FA's say? Pilots think they have the story right 100% of the time and most of what pilots say can usually be attributed to a wish list.

I wouldn't bet my house on a rumor that a FA heard.

However, now that United supposedly has an RFP out for additional regional lift, maybe we will finally see some of that storied UAX flying that has been circulating around for years.

AV8rKing: this post was not directed toward you, specifically. It is just a general statement.

Comair flight attendants, goos source of information. I like the one who said her and her husband have 2 houses, one in Florida and Cincinnati, comes to find out she's living at home with her mama. But everything she says is suspect.

I'm with you, don't believe what a F/A says. They are full of it.

Chill out guys and gals. I wrote that quickly on an iPhone and used a poor choice of words. Obviously "growth" wasn't the right word. Just passing along what I had heard.
