Clouds on the horizon.
Storm clouds are forming on the horizon....TSA losing the AA flying was only the beginning for TSA holdings. GoJet flying for United and Delta is next on the chopping block. Uncle Hulas is going to cash out and retire...

Just clearing the decks for a buyout. UAL has what it wanted, the AA flying is gone. Look for Trans States to get bought next, probably by Republic and may involve Commutair somehow, Gojet Comair planes to Endeavor, Gojet UAL 700s to be replaced by Republic 175s, and Compass to be bought by RP as well.....
We will be just fine, thanks.

It sounds like both companies will operate independently for an undisclosed period of time. When the 145 contract TSA signed with UA runs out, the 145's will be removed from service (I believe somewhere around 2022.) By that time the infamous MRJ that TSA guys talk about all the time should be rolled out and fully integrated in the YX network

I can't speak about the Commutair or Endeavor planes. However, I would expect in the next week or so for an announcement that Republic will be absorbing a big piece of Trans States Holdings. BB has already said on multiple occasions that something big is coming and with F. Oxley in Indy almost weekly, it is only a matter of time before the announcement comes. Everyone here at YX is excited for the move because it advances our west coast presence that we are severely lacking.

There was a TSA memo that came out saying there’s going to be an announcement in about a week regarding an “agreement”. They’re getting documents ready. There was 0 indication from it though that were being bought, just regarding flying. I would think they would have at least hinted at it so they keep guys from bailing. It could be just a Compass buyout. I’d believe more a commutair/TSA merge than RAH but you never know.
Once again, until BB and HK consummate this deal, nothing is guaranteed till the announcement happens. We'll see but something is coming.
RP payrates here we come. Woot. Woot.

There is so much movement going on and everyone is so short on pilots right now I suspect this won't be much of an issue. Probably the bigger issue will be selecting a union and the whole ALPA vs Teamsters thing, and then getting a new joint contract.
Let the games begin. Should be interesting however this goes down.
