Yup I think furloughs, if they even happen, are a ways off yet. Long term VTO and the new part time program haven’t even made it out to the pilot group yet. Will be a number of months before they know demand for the future and number of pilots who will be taking these deals.

The WARN notices everyone is worried about is a 60 day notice. You only saw them if the company wanted to pull the trigger 1 October. If SkyWest wants to take a month or two and survey the carnage before they decide, they are in a financial position to do it.
When the airlines hit their second round of furloughs, SkyWest really won't have a choice because everyone shrinks with the current scope clauses.

Anyone know what the clauses are for each partner and when it actually would kick in?
I wonder if other company closures will offset any scope requirements, if a partner closes up and fleet is parked at that time it would prevent another airline parking theirs I assume. I would take a guess it’s a UAX/DC/AE wide requirement and not regional specific.

Pilots at Southwest, how is it?
