ASA has much higher costs than skywest. Remeber also back in 2005/2006 when ASA was purchased by skywest and ASA was negotiating a new contract. ALPA did nothing but drag its feet on the 700 and 900 pay and didn't want to even meet half-way.
Also I don't know if you should be posting that on a public forum, that was info sent out in a company e-mail.

If these reports were not published then this would be considered insider information which would make it illegal for SKW to release the info to its employees. We as pilots are not in the "know."

SKW management went through a lot of trouble since BH took over at ASA to boost moral and make it seem like they actually cared about our employees. Lately, the words are still there but they are furloughing pilots, badly abusing our FAs and hardly even waving goodbye as we lose stations. And now they shift flying for Skywest this fall to avoid a big reduction in schedule while ASA takes a huge cut.
The only thing I can figure is that SKW has more of a vested interest in keeping the Skywest pilots happy and union activity at bay. Disappointing news but not really surprising!

I was more curious why ASA management (we are the same company after all!) wouldn't try to do the same thing.
