NuGuy said:Same at NWA. RJs have been a huge vortex of cash. After the subsidies for fuel and landing fees, not to mention "forgiven" 15 million dollar debts, the ink is pretty red despite the bottom drawer wages.
This doesn't even include midnight "revenue" flights with no passengers because they couldn't find a FA just so they can get their handout from the mothership. Oh yea, NWA has to pick up the tab for putting up the stranded pax for the night as a bonus.
The only things revenue positive at either of the Airlinks are the Saabs.
It's right in the 10k if you want to look it up.

I will have to look at the new contract but off the top of my head AA Pilots will fly anything over 50 seats from here on out. The 25 CRJ-700's that Eagle had on order and the other 25 options are grandfathered to Eagle.
AMR and the APA tried to hammer out a deal where AA pilots would fly the CRJ-700 but everyone on property knew that it would never happen. It had to be cost neutral over what the Eagle pilots where flying it at.
The agreement bombed quickly.
