With PDT opening a CLT base I think they could easIly cover all the current TSA routes between the PHL and CLT bases. American has all ready said they’re willing to give PDT more then 53 planes if they are able to staff them.

The AA Connection planes Tsa had back in the day were taken away almost overnight and sent back to Eagle. I wouldn't get too comfortable on the current American Eagle planes.

Piedmont has all ready gotten a few TSA planes. Don’t know what would keep them from getting more.

This is true. My opinion is that it was always the plan to "slow trickle" the planes back once PDT could staff them. I'm sure it was part of the original understanding. It was never in the cards to operate them forever. The money was just too good for us NOT to do the AA flying. The AA flying wasn't even on the radar back in early 2015 when we were focused on doubling down on UA flying and "doubling our size" with that flying alone... didn't really work out that way.

According to a recent company call-in about our new Frontier Flow Agreement this actually helps TSA's profits because we can operate flights using the airplanes we own rather than keeping them parked over at the hangar in STL.

Oh I can’t wait to fly more of the wonderful HK planes that have been sitting around for years.

I’m wondering how long it will take to get those planes back up and flying. They’ve been robbing parts off of them for a while now

Lol I don’t know if you’ve take a stroll by the hangar lately but those planes literally look like they’re rusted over.
