For example, is Comair going to cashless cabin?
Is Comair going to pay for airport parking for commuting flight attendant?
Are we going to by other airlines like republic did?

Sounds like Bendo thinks that there is no need to pay your crews as low as Mesa, but that Comair's crew costs are still 15 to 20% higher than their competition.
I heard that he pretty much said he wasn't around during that bankruptcy, but that basically he was put in place to lower cost. So when asked about all of the money that the crews gave up during the bankruptcy and why that wasn't enough he said something about the settlement that followed which made it not really a big cost saving.

There's no reason that should be a recurring labor charge.
Wonder if anyone asked since past concessions to make Comair competitive, including concessions given in exchange for a contractural obligation for Comair/Delta to grow, actually resulted in the company's fleet shrinking by 40% why any rational labor group should do anything other than roll their eyes and laugh at such a ridiculous idea that employees should be buying aircraft for Delta?
No concessions. The job is already not worth having.

RAH has the 170s...DL will not let those go..you may see a reduction in 145 flying..but the 170s are popular with DL, and they wont want to lose em.

The settlement was three years ago, iirc, and was a one time payout in the form of stock purchase warrants, again iirc, that realistically cost Delta nothing.
