Wow shocking. SHOCKING! I spilled the hot chocolate all over the floor because of my shockness. I guess they don't have a choice, their seniority can hold it.

Frontier is recalling pilots. One bid closed last week and one closed today.

This integration war will be worst than US Airways east/west.

Fixed it for ya! I tend to agree with you though... this integration is gonna be interesting to say the least. The only real positive I can think of regarding the US/HP merge when compared to this one is that cockpits did not have to be shared between the two groups. Sounds to me that YX/RW guys will have no choice in the matter...

YX and F9, want to clue some of us in on who those airlines are? Everyone freaks out on the 9E usage around here, it goes both ways.

You have to understand that this doesn't sit well with people. I understand you weren't rooting for MidWest's demise but a little sensitivity would go a long way from many of the Republic pilots.

That's not actually true and I don't know why people gloss over this as if it is fact. Those pilots were already out of a job in Nov. They were purchased before that happened, so instead of going the way of liquidation, their airline brand was bought and their jobs will eventually be offered back to them... at half the pay. ****ty it is. And probably a harder pill to swallow I understand. But I don't think RAH pilots should be treated unfairly because of it.

Where would Midwest Airlines be right now if Republic hadn't bought them? Was it pretty much guaranteed that they would be liquidated by now? Bankruptcy a possibility? Just wondering what you guys think would have happened.
