Delta and NWA regionals to merge too?
 
Any chance of Comair and Pinnacle merging? They could call it Comacle.

This is a failed attempt at being funny.

Comair is owned by DAL but Pinnacle is not owned by NWA. Also if DAL didn't merge Comair and ASA in the past, what make anyone think they'll do it with Compass and Comair? What would they call that merger …………… hmmmmmmm ….. Compass …….. Comair……… haaaa ....... ComAir. Another reason for not merging their regional airlines (DAL owns Comair and NWA owns Compass and Mesaba) is so that they can whipsaw one against the other.

This thread is a waist of time and everyone should let it ride off into the pages of history with all the other failed threads.

One theory has all the Wholly Owned's, or part of them, sold of to Republic for cash that this deal badly needs. Republic bought part of the US Air system in their merger, so it has happened before.

I would hope ALPA would merge the "regionals" into mainline. No more "bi directional flow through," just One List.

Amen. I couldn't agree more. It would make so much sense to have A List for all. Because this is not the case now, NWA is losing a lot of good experienced pilots at its wholly owned Mesaba to other majors instead of flowing up to NWA.

Chill out BRO. Do people need to check with you before they post anything on here?

Just calling it as I see it.

It's narrow-minded to think that I don't have fun and it's ridiculous to make an assumption about an entire pilot group based upon my posting.

As I said, this thread is a failed attempt at being funny, JMO.

Knock Knock . . . .

OK so the guy told an already played joke. Big deal.

The title of the thread at least has some merit. I for one am interested in the outcome of a DL/NWA merger and its effect on the associated regionals. I wish I had answers, however I am not nearly smart enough to come up with any. I do feel that right now is a good time to be in the middle of a seniority list.

Is it alright if I post,
"I don't have the required total amount of posts in order to PM you my requests, so how should I go about asking you?"

Change is the only constant so what happens .............. happens. At the end of our careers lets all hope we can look back and feel lucky becuase it's all dumb luck in the end.

Maybe in somehow they do but it escapes me. How can you have fun in a state that has a metering device on its liquor bottles to pour exactly one ounce.

JetJock:

Agreed, change will happen and do believe it is what it is. However, it sure is fun to speculate!

Not everyone at SKW is from Utah, I've never lived there and I'm from Dallas. Remember that we only have one domicile in Utah that contains less than 25% of our pilot group and over half of them commute in. Also, SKW SLC base has THE HOTTEST FA's in the industry, hands down.

I'd say it's obvious from my avatar.

What else can you do, it was a joke and I took it that way.

Good Day.
