<div class="bbWrapper">Looks we&#039;ll have some SLC overnights on the -700 and the -200 starting in April. The -200 will even hit the Pacific (check SLC-SJC on 4/15 for example). <br /> <br /> All of these are subject to change if we don&#039;t pass PBS.<br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> <br /> Just kidding about that last part.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Didn&#039;t you guys hear? Skywest management said they will &quot;probably&quot; award ASA an LAX and DEN base if we pass PBS. They also said they &quot;may consider&quot; buying A320s which could &quot;potentially&quot; go to ASA if we pass PBS.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">I have absolute confidence that this is merely a carrot for PBS. As nice as these trips are, they are a logistical nightmare when all your resources are in ATL. <br /> <br /> But, if this is for real, kudos to all. I would love to trade some ATL flying with Skywest out west. I&#039;m sure it would be even as well. I know there are a few of those guys that would like a So Florida beach overnight as much as we would enjoy the mountains.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Sounds like the illogical planning of Delta. No, it doesn&#039;t make sense to have ASA go to the west coast if all their resources are in ATL, and it doesn&#039;t make sense for Skywest to keep flying 200s/700s into ATL. If you want the proof go to Deltanet and look at the schedule bulletins. It might take you a minute to find it, but it&#039;s in there.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">If they spread everyone out, then everyone is in position to cover when Freedom is finally gone and, technically, no one can refuse routes as &quot;flying struck work&quot; if one of the DCI carriers strike. They will, in essence, be routes your company is already flying. Move a little ASQ to SLC &amp; DTW, move some SKW to MSP, move a few MES to JFK &amp; ATL... and they&#039;re covered. Right or wrong, it&#039;s pretty genius.</div>

<div class="bbWrapper">Are these round trips or just one way? Maybe we are just flying them out to SLC for SkyWest to take them over. ASA crews deadhead back to ATL.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Yeah, weren&#039;t we supposed to be flying into bozeman a while back? That never happened. I&#039;m just saying.</div>

Hey, if ASA is still in SLC in the fall, why don&#039;t you come up to the casa and watch USC beat the crap out of Notre Dame ;-).<br /> <br /> I figured Mesaba would want to realign themselves up North. I&#039;m hoping ASA can fill in since it&#039;s all Inc.&#039;s pocket anyways. Good to hear. I haven&#039;t heard one complaint from any crewmembers about flying out West. I&#039;m sure there are a few however!!!<br /> <br /> Trojan</div>

Exactly what is happening right now. Shuffle everyone so that nobody has unique flying and there&#039;s no way to claim struck work. And as for flying out west, I enjoy the flying there, just not the trip to get there and back. 3+ hours in anything Bombardier built is just too long.</div>
 
<div class="bbWrapper">Makes me wonder though, if ASA is doing some West Coast flying and ATL base for SKYW is closing are we (Skywest Inc. ASA &amp; Skywest) still gonna be able to hold 80% ATL DL Conx flying?</div>
