I would not see that happening. Not right thing to do. C5 seniority list compares no where near like xjt. Not many people over 5 years. Let alone 3 as captain at c5.

In response to johncarr post to under negotiations and Skywest purchasing them with a LOA, our union has rejected LOAs and made it clear it’s time for a new contract. Now could they change they mind, sure. But from what we been told, it’s a new contract. And again, that’s just my thought process on why I think we would personally merge. Either way, company (c5) knows our contract is behind and we can’t retain pilots at all because of it.

It’s all just rumor at end of day. We heard it at c5... but we go about our business like nothing gonna happen. Let’s face it, both companies are controlled by the mothership and who knows what they want.

Yawn..I’m still waiting on our “Industry Leading Grooming Standards.”

Merge XJT/C5 and make it one big WSCoD operator and then the 175s go to Compass

only for the person who eats the finished product. The meat and the cheese don’t give a crap about each other.

side note.....the c5/XJT rumor has been around for years. At one point it also included AirWis and Mesa. (All the CPP carriers)

Anyone wanna take a stab at the 'big news' thats supposed to be coming???

Pizza party (don’t eat it all in one place).

PBS

Smart Perf is no longer available. Most of the software we is still under the Skywest license and the rights to use it is going away. Software that supports bidding on lines built by the union probably isn't available anymore or cost more than a PBS would

There isn't any. Every few weeks the "big news is coming" rumor gets started and never happens.
Always been this way and always will be this way.

There is no big news.. The 175’s are spoken for. You can’t code share with another partner. Opening a DEN base? Possibly, but that’s not big news. A merge? That sounds like a disaster..

I think the rumor is that bad news is coming. Who knows what. My guess is closing more bases like TYS or EWR or both. The could even close the 145 ORD base. Merger could be a possible thing as well. I’m totally throwing stuff out there, but whatever it is we won’t know for a few weeks.
