But, but, but we want SkyWest or better work rules and pay in our contract..... When the rest of the regionals stop trying to negotiate what we have you might have something. Until then....

Huh, seems like you've had one to many hard landings. Please give me one example of other carriers asking to meet Skywest's contract????

I believe DL did in their recent TA negotiations.

If that's the case it would've been a couple steps backwards. Still not an example though. Would be nice to see a factual reference

Neither does american. You have to volunteer to be reassigned.

Well I guess that proves Skywest has the better contract. My bad, I didn't realize. I always thought they took bits and pieces from other contracts too keep them just good enough to keep the unions away. Also, what's going on with your brothers and sisters at Express Jet? I don't see much support from the Skywest side

I heard today from a reliable source that there's a flow agreement with these Delta planes. To Virgin Atlantic.
