Mesa CRJ-900's in DFW for Delta?

I can't feel my legs!

With the mass exodus from Mesa and their inability to hire pilots how do they expect to staff additional planes?
Delta must be aware of their inability to hire. In PHX they have been offering double time for open time pickups for the past year.
Just curious how they do it.

They will probably be able to keep staffing (barely) since they are slowly shutting down the 1900 flying. There are many 1900 CAs on holdback pay for the jet.

My guess:

DFW-ATL (a few flights mixed with DL)
DFW-JFK
DFW-SLC
DFW-CVG
&
DFW-LAX

There will be no crew base for any Delta Connection in DFW. This is scoped by the Delta P/W/A. The only way a Delta Connection crew base could be opened in DFW is that if Delta opens a pilot crew base in DFW, or if scope relief was obtained.

It will never happen! Dallas will be an outstation, and for good reason.

Is that applicable to just DFW? What about the other domiciles that delta has closed?

PDX? MSY?

PDX? MSY?

To those, I would say the same applies. There are a few exceptions due to scope, but from recall, they seem to be in Florida.
