You and many others of the 20th Century had the ability to by pass the regionals and make it to a major.
The future of the air line pilot profession will be shouldered by the regionals. Your FOs at SWA will be regional pilots.... most likely RJ Captains who know their stuff......
Most people who don't know who ASA, MESA or who SkyWest is... it is eaiser to say Delta or Delta Connection.....
If pilots want to go to SWA or DAL they are going to have to go to the regionals... it is really the only game in town.....
Sorry, state work laws do not apply. There is federal preemption. Look up Fitzgerald v. SkyWest.
I believe the regionals fly the most domestic flying. If not, give it time.I guess in some ways I agree but the fact of the matter is that the creations of the regional system screwed this industry and will continue forever now. We better preay that the regionals do not become the majority because there goes you leverage and we will all be working for $60 an hour.....
They could increase ticket prices, but it will never go back to the quality of service or the employees.if passengers would pay a fair price for tickets, maybe we could restore the industry to what it used to be..now everyone hates flying and just complain about all the things the airlines lack..its costs the same today to fly new york to LA as it did in the 1970's..maybe less! pilot quality, and safety have all improved...what came down? oh yeah, pay..
