Having an opinion is a great thing, don't cha think? My claim however has weight behind it, where yours....well.....you really have nothing.



If the day comes that you ever are unionized, then I suppose you may or may not have something to back up your claim. Until then however, the reality is the airline has been successful as a non union carrier.

Your claim is idiotic. The fact that the airline is successful without a union proves the likelihood that it will be successful with one. Not the other way around. Source: every airline that had unionized.

Hmmmm, lets see. Lets compare notes, shall we?


Please name me those non unionized airlines that have been successful without a union.


Please name those unionized airlines that have failed and no longer exist.



My claim is not idiotic, and that is your emotional logic talking. Put your feelings aside, and be realistic.

You do realize that every airline in existence today was at one point non-union, don't you? Again, you are the one making claims with no facts to back them up. As usual.

This statement does not help your claim. Kind of proves my point that adding a union can lead to failure doesn't it? You have this backwards. You are making claims you cannot back up with facts.

We get, you are a non-pilot stock owner on a pilot board arguing against the pilots unionizing. Like I said, your position on this is as rational as the pilot wanting to unionize.

Stockholder (you) = against any of your company’s work groups unionizing. We get it.

You may get it, others......not so much.

Let's see. Frontier and Jet Blue are the latest carries to unionize. They're doing pretty awful aren't they?

Not as bad as Comair. And how long have those two carriers been in business in comparison to SkyWest? They don't have forty plus years of history in their books. When they hit that milestone we can talk about it.

Again, tell me which carrier has gotten worse off financially after unionizing? Your Comair reference doesn't even apply. YOU made the point that unionizing would hurt Skywest financially. Where is the data that supports that claim?
