If ExpressJet puts it's 69 extra Embraers in a SWA regional system, will the pilots get a flowthrough? I know that some would argue that ExpressJet pilots already have a defacto flow through, so leave that one alone.

Says, "what A Ridiculous Questions!"
Will your magic eight ball tell you when ExpressJet gets E190's? Or where they will be placed? Will it tell you which ExpressJet pilot believes that the extra E145's WILL be flown for SWA?
 
SWA already has a regional partner. It's called ATA Airlines. They fly from the western US "region", to the Hawaiian "region".
 
There is no current flow-through with the ATA pilot group. I have heard this rumor from several Expressjet guys but have not heard it online at SWA.. Not saying it couldn't happen of course..

Did i miss something, Is there another code share on the way?
 
What in the world are you talking about? Code share with a regional right before our contract is to be renegotiated, I think not. All SWA flying will be done by SWA pilots. One reason our codeshare gives the money to the airline that flys the passanger instead of sharing the money. Also, I dont believe we would offer a flow through, we like our interview process.

From Supertramp:
Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer
Well can you put your hands in your head, oh no!
I said dreamer, youre nothing but a dreamer

I said far out, - what a day, a year, a laugh it is!
You know, - well you know you had it comin to you,
Now theres not a lot I can do

Dreamer, you stupid little dreamer;
So now you put your head in your hands, oh no!
I said far out, - what a day, a year, a laugh it is!
You know, - well you know you had it comin to you,
Now theres not a lot I can do.

Well work it out someday

If I could see something
You can see anything you want boy
If I could be someone-
You can be anyone, celebrate boy.
If I could do something-
Well you can do something,
If I could do anything-
Well can you do something out of this world?

Take a dream on a sunday
Take a life, take a holiday
Take a lie, take a dreamer
Dream, dream, dream, dream, dream along...

Dreamer, you know you are a dreamer

Oh no!

Agreed, so does ATA.

Thank You StarrBuck, I knew that I didn't dream this rumor up all own my own. Although I had heard that it was an Expressjet/SWA deal, not an ExressJet/ATA deal.

Stranger things have happened.

I wouldn't hold my breath on that one. If SWA wanted a regional partner, they would have just kept C8 around but they put the nail in that coffin.
 
It doesnt even have to be a codeshare, we could do the flying under our own brand and just filter people into Southwest destinations. Could happen and i have been hearing it more and more. we shall see. It would work and would be great for XJT and SWA. WIN WIN

Thats what Chicago Express did when they started. Then ATA did a codeshare with them. Then ATA bought them.

I'm sorry, I didn't mean to come off as a biatch. Under a lot of stress lately. That's my excuse today at least. ;) I have done my fair share of wishful thinking myself.
