That is a little creative history there. Transtates didn't win that bid 4 years ago. They were anticipating winning the bid but United was playing dirty pool. Your management told the pilots that they had "won" the contract but that wasn't true. United whipsaws regionals against each other, it was dirty pool when Skywest was brought in to negotiate against XJT a few years ago, and it is the same game today but Transtates is now the being used to whipsaw Skywest into doing its flying cheaper. This isn't the pilots fault but no one owns the flying or has "won" any contract for any career worthy amount of time. This is why the regionals aren't sustainable. There will always be a company ready to do it cheaper. Don't blame xjt...this is United's game and the pilots are just cannon fodder.
Right now the group that decides who flies what at the regional level is telling every airline "we really want you to do this but we need it for X amount cheaper." Then they go to the next regional "we really want you guys but transtates can do it for X." You guys might very well get some flying but you also might just be being used... like last time. |
Finally a bit of a change in scenery, going to Florida starting Jan. Jacksonville from IAH and IAD.

I knew the good news would come just after I left! Every little bit helps, I guess. Maybe those will balance out the canada overnights, temperature-wise! |
