The "clause" is a starting piont "SkyWest inc" will negotiate from there, just like they did with the Delta Comair swap.. I can see this happening way more then just as written in the L-XJT deal right now.. SkyWest Inc is looking for "long term" solutions..( Straight from the company news letter... )...I see them working with United for a long term solution.. Not just a 75 plane swap out...
 
I simply LOL at regional pilots that actually think they have a say in their future.
 
That no longer applies. The TPA added a clause that excludes aircraft returned to the lessor. When aircraft went from ASA to skyw for LCC, they went through the bank so pilots didn't have to go iaw the cba. They will use this clause also when erjs are replaced with CRJ700&900s.

The difference is that your 200s were actually transferred and ended up at Skywest. The ERJs will be parked. But if they do end up using those ERJs for something after their leases expire, i don't see them giving them to ASA or SKW to operate. The replacement aircraft clause still stands. It's part of the CPA regardless of when the ERJs get parked. That's the whole point of that clause, to replace our expiring ERJs. Skywest new these leases were expiring starting next year and that is why they negotiated that clause in our CPA.
 
Dont you think SKYW could sign a new deal for growth aircraft, and agree to terminate the old CPA? We had a deal with DL through 2016 to fly all of our 200's, but contracts get cancelled and superseded by new agreements.
 
The article is old, but the provisions about larger aircraft if United relaxes scope are still relevant. That is the reason for quoting what I did, then sighting the entire article as a source.

United has already "relaxed" scope. You do realize that they passed their JCBA??

You're grasping at straws.

Yeah, like I and someone else already mentioned on this thread, they can probably circumvent their own agreement with us by doing that.
 
My guess is right now "inc" is setting up "long term"... I bet they are talking to UA/DL/AA/AK/US to solidify the next 10-15 years...
