You're so negative about everything. You need some anti-depressants or something. Good grief.

Pretty much any ALPA regional MEC. They are creaming their britches at the prospect of flying bigger airplanes for less.

Got to pay for those legacy wages somehow right?

"guys, with this merger all bets are off. The"fleet plan" is out the window. That furlough protection will be voided. We just cant compete with the other players out there. More flying, those options for 47 planes will go to an undisclosed regional. Hiring will stop today as we will shrink even more.The good news is that no one should get furlough. I will keep you informed as I get more news. I am optimistic about our future and with your continued support I am confident we will succeed."

Vacancy bid for captains to outnumber any displacement bids by 100. To happen soon.

Like any rumors, time will tell.... Jeopardy music plays in the background...

Some times we're not really quite sure what will happen next.

Other times, we absolutely know we have no clue.

Couldn't be the Flow to AA is causing the excess could it?

Facts from what? Eagle lounge? You're going on nothing but speculation. If it's going to be so bad here, why don't you just go to republic now? I try to be positive about the situation. If you look at any regional, they have their share of problems. Yeah, ours isn't the greatest, but we have a better outlook than some other airlines.
