That 20% only matters if SkyWest is interested in enforcing that part of the agreement. So far SkyWest has shown "no interest." Further, if SkyWest and Delta agree to something else, then something else is the new agreement.

My understanding is that SkyWest is not purchasing Comair's jets. We are basically offering a crew leasing, maintenance, insurance service. As such, it appears management is just shifting airplanes to scare, harass and attack their productive employees at Comair. Perhaps those airplanes will be backfilled, but this sounds like a very short term deal, if it happens at all.

If it was good flying, SkyWest would do it. If it leads to instability and destruction of morale they shift it to ASA.

The Comair airplanes will not leave the premises. Comair will have a new contract, one way or another, by December 30, 2006, and there will be no competitive reason to go forward with the transfer.

As a result, ASA will have a new contract by mid January! The new benchmark will unfortunately still be Comair.

Book It!

I'll take that bet...$100 on ASA getting the 70's.
 
ASA will get those CR7s IMHO to help backfill the CR2s that are going to LAX. The bulk of the flying for those CR7s will be for CVG but they will rotate in and out of ATL doing ATL trips.
