Yay, lets celebrate management winning again and whipsawing one pilot group against another.

No, they will complete their SLI, get an industry leading contract and take your flying... CRJ 200 for over water ops!

How is our getting an AMR contract ( not even close to official ) any different than any contracts before? We don't fly for pennies on the dollar and I won't apologize for getting more flying while still being paid reasonable wages.

Because your "new" AMR flying wouldn't be new at all, it would be some of eagle's flying, resulting in the loss of jobs over there. Its the never ending regional carousel...

Regionals do not own any flying.

You wont for long if you start flying for a loss with AMR.

GoJetzzzzzzz flies for Delta because SkyWest Inc. will not fly at a loss. I doubt they will start now.

Ah yes. Salivating at the thought of getting more flying when it means that another (reasonably compensated) pilot group may have to furlough.

Stay classy!
