That's what we are discussing.
United operated by Republic- Ahead of a Compass or Frontier pilot but behind Wisconsin.
Delta operated by Republic- ahead of Wisconsin or Frontier but behind Compass.
Something like that?

Doesn’t really affect any stakeholders, so I’m for it. I do have a problem with OAL guys going above RAH on AAG metal though.

The problem is that Republic pilots believe they should go above everybody except the Airline that they are on. It would be above OAL pilots on AA, Delta , and United. I don't agree. If they only fly for a single legacy, or have to choose a single legacy, I might agree. THE PROBLEM IS THEY WANT IT ON ALL OF THE LEGACIES! That will never happen.

Dude... we already get it on UA and DL.

And what the hell do you care if we go above JetBlue on every legacy we support. JetBlue or frontier (insert OAL) pilots literally do nothing for their operation. I do something for each of the airlines (UA, AA, DL) every month.

And to answer your next predictable argument, you won't find a pilot on property with more then 3 months seniority who hasn't flown for all three codeshares. That's part of the profit model when you have just one fleet type. If you start fencing off pilots to a single codeshare you would need to hire 10% - 20% more pilots to fly the same number of total block hours.

Here’s the problem. I think the right thing to do would be to pick a legacy (among the legacies your regional flies for) that works best for you and receive the JS priority that coincides with being part of that regional system. Each year you have the opportunity to change priority as bases etc change but you pick 1, not all three. That is ridiculous.

Also they’re not the only regional that flys for more then one code share. I’m pretty sure Skywest has the exact same agreement that Republic has with UA and DL. They probably have the same agreement with AS as well.
I’ve heard this will be settled in early October, so apparently not long to wait.

The accuracy of this statement. I’ve seen a mainline pilot throw a fit over one guy getting own metal priority when he got left behind. The argument was “check the registration, I guarantee it says American Airlines. That’s my plane!” It actually said US Airways, but that’s neither here nor there.
