The best part about this lack of productivity created is it will cause regionals profit margins to tank. Perhaps the RJs will make it back to mainline after all.

Be sure to write a nice, friendly letter to your Congressmen or Senators that sponsored this Bill and then voted to pass it...

Mesa's lines came out today. Absolute garbage. low hours, down to min days off, un commutable, 6 days on 2 days off for 3 straight weeks, 30 hour layovers. I will now be spending more time sitting in a hotel for the foreseeable future than I will at home. At regional FO pay this really makes this unacceptable. At this point in time 2/3 of my life will now be working and waiting.

Any regionals out there use any good pairing optimizers? Anyone noticing anything different between pbs vs non pbs. I know It really shouldn't make that much of a difference because if the trips are garbage pbs can't do anything about it.
