There's still going to be more furloughs. Comair is letting go 100 this fall. Mesaba is also letting some go as well. Thats mostly due to DL consolidation and getting rid of 50 seaters that don't do well anyway. Hopefully that will be it for the year. 2010....well that anyones guess. I'm thinking it will be flat, with maybe a few airlines here and there making a few recalls for summer flying. But I can't a see a mass recall then.

Didn't Mesa announce a ton of furloughs that will be taking place over the next few months?

So..
Mesa furloughing
Comair furloughing more
ASA furloughing more
Mesaba furloughing more
Skywest holding on by their chinny chin chin still? (i'm asking Skywesters indirectly what's up with their company)

Hmm...notice the Del-trend-a. DCI carriers getting the ultimate BOHICA treatment...who would've figured....


Wait till this January when Delta and NW are on the same operating cert. The hammer is going to fall, and it's going to fall hard.

The light is 2012. But then we all die in December, stupid Mayans.

Mesaba is furloughing because we are beginning to park our "core 49 Saab fleet" Anyone still believe that bs line from the bankruptcy? By 2012 we will be a core 0 Saab fleet.... Otherwise yea anywhere Delta can cut 50 seaters (or outright get out of a long term contract) they will right now...... As for what happens after SOC at mainline, well maybe that end of the world at 2012 may not be that far off course, who knows.

I just got my furlough notice about 45 mins ago. Out at months end.

Does anyone have a LAMA membership application or do I just get grandfathered in?

You're not really a LAMA if you're still on the list...you have to quit or refuse recall when the time comes
