It was a slow news day.

Not likely to happen since the company has already Tentatively Negotiated that all SWA branded flying would be done by pilots on the SWAPA seniority list. There will probably be some pretty strong codeshare language in the next contract that would preclude any type of codeshare deal either.

Can I join the SWAPA seniority list?

Same thing I've heard. The fuel would be paid for by Southwest, the planes paid for by Skywest. What I was told by my source was look at a Southwest route map, then look at a Skywest route map. You then will have the idea where the planes (CRJ 1000) will fly at. I even asked him what the name would be? He said no name other than Southwest. No southwest express or anything else. Take this for what it's worth, at this point in time, NOTHING!

That's what I figured. Wife is out, kids are in bed, so why not do this?
