Dont worry that 80% thing will change, after Delta gets done with pinnacle, United and Delta will work a deal to Bankrupt Express Jet next. Skywest will come out untouched but since United Let Delta take all of Pinnacles flying away, Delta will probably let United make express Jet stop flying for delta and put them in to chapter 11.

WOW..Your smart
 
Buuuzzzzzzz. Nope. Wrong.

Does not specify, in fact, it was an issue on the last 2 for 1 swap if ASA still,had the 80%.

ASA does not have to have 80% of the connection flights out of ATL, SkyWest, Inc. does. They could just add some SkyWest flights and be in perfect compliance. It still protects against being filled in with other companies though.

From the SkyWest 10-K:

We have separate, but substantially similar, long-term fixed-fee Delta Connection Agreements with Delta for both SkyWest Airlines and ASA. We also control 29 gates in the Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport located in Atlanta, from which we currently provide service to Delta. Delta has agreed that ASA and SkyWest Airlines will operate, collectively, not less than 80% of all Delta Connection program departures scheduled at Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
 
It looks like we know who will be parking the first 200's when they get the 15 Pinnacle CRJ 900's that will be lost in the bankruptcy. I would assume that is going to be 30-45 CRJ 200's parked by either ASA or Skywest in trade for those planes. 45 down, 185 or so to go.
 
Don't you think delta can rework the contract if both agrees. It could be less then 80 percent. You never know what is in the works by both companies.
 
The SkyWest update says, they want to work with Delta to meet there needs and be successful. So yes they could let Delta out of the "sepicific" things Delta does'nt like in the ASA/SKY contract.. (the 80% and the min block hour) so what are they willing to trade?? When will we find out the breakdown of the 200's leaving and the 900's comming...?? Not soon enough...
