If I was a guessing man, I would say that there was another airline out there looking to add/improve/replace some of their regional flying. However, since oil has skyrocketed during this same time frame, I would have to guess they have taken a step back and are re-evaluating whether or not to proceed with bringing on another regional carrier-hence the no news. Just a theory!
However that being said, it was mentioned that the plans do change almost daily especially with economic hits with oil prices. It as aso mentioned with the loss of Frontier flying the CEO for RAH may entice DAL to implement their 170's for a price as well. Many scenario's out there and the reality is that this BS oil scam is dictating on what direction everyone may go.
The only thing for certain is what happened yesterday so enjoy today. We are hiring and for that I guess we should be happy regardless if we get the 900's or not. Many airlines have gone down in just a matter of two months.

I think they said the announcement that would come in the 5-10 days was the potential growth within Delta, which came about 10 days after the web conference. I also kinda wondered about the 170s RAH had and if Delta would pick them up.
Their 900s contract is up in September for you know who??? They don't even have all of them yet.

Is there anyway to get them to award more than 11 days off a month to the reserve guys?
I mean, to have at LEAST 67 FOs on reserve (from those rough calculations) is an obscene number.
But i'm sure they'll stack up as many as they can.
You know what's even more pathetic
67 first year pay FOs for a month at 75 hours guarantee only costs the company 110K

It happened to me once a few months or so ago, I got 12 days off but I have a feeling it was an overlook on scheduling's behalf (not that I feel scheduling eeeever makes any mistakes
). My favorite is I have 4 off, then 2 on, followed by 3 off. Those 2 on happen to be a weekend...way to spread out my days, like God forbid we have a weekend off here or there.
