All Eagle pilots getting numbers at AA?

[cbrown1]

look for SkyWest to try and negotiate a flow agreement with Delta and United in the future

How and Why?

 

[SiuDude]

How and Why?

To encourage more qualified applicants at the regional level.
ASA is already working on something similar.

How and Why?

By talking to them, and because its the best way to get rid of your senior guys and lower your costs.

Process of elimination, Who has the cash.
Republic - no
Pncl - probably not
Awac - no
Mesa - who knows
Trans States - maybe

who does that leave....

Well, I would have to say you're probably right. If SkyWest bought Eagle I would imagine they drove a hard bargain that protects their own best interests.

Why would they create new flows with ASA and Skywest when they didn't even want to keep the ones that were already negotiated? The only thing I could see happening is if they payed Delta off to do it. Other than that, it makes no sense.

Where did you hear that?

Where did you hear that?

Directly from SH.

 

[asayankee]

Something to think about is cost...... by having a flow, Delta guarantees themselves a steady flow of pilots from the upper level of the regional pilots, thus lowering their cost for regional feed.

Not exactly the most trustworthy source. He says many things that don't turn out to be true.

I know that PNCL Union is trying to work with Delta Union with it. Apparantly at the time Delta Management is not interested.
