Southwest to get new RJ Partner in 2009!

I've also heard that if the union goes through at Jetblue, management was looking at either Republic or Air Wisconsin to fly our E-190s!!!

Sounds like someone wants you to be scared of having a union. Another anti union tactic. Can you believe it? Also a regional being outsourced to a regional.....Scary!

Yet another great scare from BB!

You get paid by the word or by the hour?

I get the impression that SW passengers love the 737 cabin, the RJ is a sardine can to be shoe-horned into.

If GK decides to mess with this formula, I fear there will be a huge backlash. There will be nothing seperating SW from any legacy.

I could, just look at Midwest.

I agree. Very sad. What a bunch of BS for Midwest. Gotta have strong scope!
Not perfect but it helps.

How long has this rumor been going on? I heard about Skywest flying EMB-175s for Southwest a year ago. Friend of mine even bought Skywest stock after a Skywest jumpseater was wetting himself telling my buddy about it.


Not happening.

Though, I did hear recently that United and USAir are looking to merge in 2010 with the head of the new company to be Jonathan Ornstein.

Funny!! I heard that if the union goes through at Jetblue global warming will accelerate, the financial markets will crash, fuel prices will double overnight (again), Iran will get the BOMB, Iraq will fall into civil unrest, N Korea will invade S Korea, hurricane season will destroy FL, JB will furlough 3000 pilots, dogs and cats will be living together!!

It's scary stuff!

OTOH, maybe Jetblue pilots will finally have a say in their future. You decide!!

This thread is stupid and a waste of bandwidth. Why in the last 2 years have the threads on this forum become more and more childish. I feel like I am listening to a bunch of high school girls starting rumors on about half these threads.

AND YOU KEEP COMING BACK AND BACK AND BACK!!!

HA YA DOING GIRL!!!!

 

[lookin4better]

Lame thread alert!....

Lame and flame....

The person who posted this just wanted to get people worked up....

If this is true it would be just about the final nail in the coffin for this industry.... and it amazes me there are kids who will gloat and get excited to take someone elses job.... fly an airplane painted by another company and claim it to be " their " flying.

Why would southwest need another regional? They've had one for years- the automobile.

Our walmart-loving nation loves driving hundreds of extra miles just to save $42.59

Who are you?

According to the past posts, PinnacleDude is a SWA new hire....so why is he talking like an outsider? Are you with SWA or SWA wanna be?

 

[FlyinGuy]

Unfortunately there may be some legs to these rumors! GK has changed the model of SWA and we are about to get the shaft. If this trend continues, we will be like everyone else. Our business model was different and it worked. Now we are going the way of the legacys.
