wow.. first they are at freedom. then they are at pinnacle. then they are at mesaba. then they are at asa. i have a strange feeling that this isn't over.

so i really dont think this is good news for skywest. they are already fat on people and if mesaba is moving into salt lake that cant be good. i would bet that the 8 markets that mesaba will serve in the 900 will be markets that skywest already services.

This is a good lesson.. Hopefully most of you Mesaba guys will be humble after this one. For a moment there you guys started to act like you sh!t don't stink...

Has ASA always had a payscale for larger aircraft? Don't they only fly 50 seaters? I guess I'm missing out on something.

That doesn't have a 900 rate. It only mentions the CRJ-200, CRJ-700 and ATR-72. Can anyone from ASA confirm that a CRJ-900 rate actually exists?

So does this mean that ASA will not be furloughing?

Skywest 700/900 pay rates are the same. I would assume ours would be the same but who knows...

Nice generalization. I love how such a small portion of people who post on public forum can give a whole airline a certain image. I don't know who you fly for nor do i care to check. I will just assume that all Jungle Jet drivers are jackasses. I'm just kidding but good God we are our own worst enemy!
