Travel benefits on all three airlines. Pilot's at other places laugh, but honestly, if you like traveling, you will quickly realize how beneficial it is to be able to use all three of the majors to get around.

Either way though, I honestly believe most of the people leaving are moving up and are not leaving us to go to some other regional.

The indications I got while in Indy this week was that pilots are leaving to go on to other LCC's, Cargo or Majors. Some (say <7% or even smaller) are retiring or leaving the industry all together from RAH.
BTW there is another name change in the works. You will start seeing more Republic Airline(s) instead of Republic XXX Holding. Then again I'll believe it when I see it or the certificate changes. Then again as long as my check clears and the pay is accurate - IDK or care who write / signs it.

Thank you Hal9000
My point with writing it as: " Republic Airline(s)" is we were told by Josh, form H.R., that we will see a MIXTURE of names for the company. E.g. Republic Holdings, Republic Airlines, AND Republic Airline.
It takes a while to print new stationary, contracts, update PR & Training materials along with associated logo, etc.
My point is whatever it says as long as my paycheck is accurate it can be from whomever!
Class dismissed.
