It was the ten years here versus 15 at a major part I didn’t get. Still don’t.

But yeah, if you have a sufficiently lucrative side gig dependent on you being at your regional it might pencil out, and I’m sure everyone experiences the golden handcuff effect of seniority. Nobody REALLY wants to start at the bottom rung of the next ladder with reserve and all the cr@p trips for initially less pay, even if they know intellectually it might work out better. Bird in the hand and all that. Still, that presumes the regional survives. Mine didn’t.

People are so quick to forget this during the "good" times.

so no next class reschedules other than the Feb 10 class?
I hoped that they'll also reschedule the other February classes right after..

Is that the only class that was rescheduled. I was under the assumption that the Feb classes have been moved accordingly. Didn’t the Feb 20th class get a March 20th? Was that not the same for the others?

Theres going to be a point in time where your partners say enough. I give it another 3/4 years. What the regionals are being compensated has list it’s cost advantages. You will see a shrinking fleet as more flying is brought in house

We have been going over this for a long time. I got into this 121 game in 1996. It has been “one list”, “in house” over and over. And it never happens…..Its all a risk and a offset for the majors. And it will continue as it always has…

I was in the 2/24 or 2/26 (forget exact date doesn’t matter anymore) ATP course 3/6 Indoc CRJ class originally, I’ll post here when/if the re-schedule email shows up.
