The Republic Visits ATL

So let me get this straight regarding DCI:
The question is: Where do ASA, Comair and Skywest predominantly fly out of now? And where do Mesa, CHQ and Shuttle figure in regarding DCI?

Trying to sort it all out, thanks.

In addition to CVG, many of Comair's flights are out of LGA, JFK, and BOS.

We need to hurry up and strike before DAL dillutes all of the ATL flying with
other carriers.

We would hate to have ATL become "unpure"...

Who are you flying for??? The third Reicht ???

So whats happening to ASA, since these are all flights ASA was doing? Is ASA decreasing flying now, as we've already seen SLC flying decreased.....now ATL?????

No dumba$$, it just erodes our bargaining power. If we wait long enough,
every DCI carrier will be flying out of ATL and it will be easier for DAL to replace us when we strike.

We probably can't support all of the flying since nobody wants to come work here and our new hire classes are not full.

You guys forget quickly. ASA's new contract with Delta requires that ASA provide 80% of the Delta Connection flying out of ATL. Now, I don't know what the current level is, but I bet they want to bring us right down to the minimum because we aren't pissed off enough yet.
