If approved and completed, the plan will result in Frontier’s successful exit from Chapter 11, at which point it would become a wholly owned subsidiary of Republic Airways, alongside the other Republic operating companies: Chautauqua Airlines, Republic Airlines and Shuttle America.

*subsidiary

I'm just gonna dump the Airbuses and fill up the slots with 190's.

What does the RAH scope say about who flies its subsidiaries?

Where are the KEEP FRONTIER MY FRONTIER stickers?

D. Scope
1. This Agreement covers the company, any subsidiary of the
company, the company’s parent, any subsidiary of the

future flying (including that international flying which originates
or terminates within the United States or its possessions) and all

aircraft prior to being placed in revenue service),
training flights, test flights, (except test flights assigned to
management), or other utilization of aircraft owned or leased by
the company, the company’s parent or any subsidiary of the
company or subsidiary of the company’s parent shall be
performed by pilots on the Chautauqua Airlines Pilots’ System
Seniority List in accordance with the terms and conditions of this
Agreement or any other applicable agreement between the
company, the company’s parent or any subsidiary of the
company’s parent and the International Brotherhood of
Teamsters, Airline Division.

RAH the next Legacy?

Frontier pilots will have their hands full then.... 150 bucks for a CA or 100 bucks for the whole crew, hmm..... which will be cheaper for management?

Nope, they will be the next airline for file bankruptcy. You heard it here first folks. Give it a few years.

How is this going to affect RAH's contracts with their major affiliates?

This is no longer an airline that is "just a feeder". RAH is it's own airline, making it's own money in direct competition with Delta, United, USAir, Continental / every other airline since they're the "village bicycle".

I would figure there will be some repercussions, at least i'm hoping.

Thanks Bedford for ruining the airline industry further. Good luck to the Frontier guys, they're going to need it.

I have to agree with this. The mainline partners will likely dump Republic/shuttle/chautauqua because of this and thus eliminate the guaranteed profits. Its likely going to end up like Indy air and XJT, especially in this operating environment.
