Will SWA keep the 717s?

[ASADFW7]

Skywest can still operate those flights, they are set to end the flight agreement.

Speaking of the Skywest problem, a gate agent at a Skywest outstation said they will continue until at least next year and there is no set time frame for them to stop. So was this SWAPA victory an agreement not to renew their contract in three years or is there a time frame set up to stop service?

Does skywest currently feed Swa flying?

No Airtran out of MKE, inherited by SWA

Does it matter according to the SWAPA contract? If it doesn't Skywest could fly until there is a SOC.

 

[ASADFW7]

It does matter according the SWAPA contract, that is why it was grieved and has been stated that it will be terminated.

All your trash talk is going to get you is unemployment benefits and a preferential interview. On behalf of 6,000+ Southwest pilots, keep it up.

No one person speaks for either pilot group on flightinfo.

Sure, the trash talk from your side is OK. We should just shut up. Right? Make sure you tell that to the next ten crew you see. Hopefully, one will be me.

Ty, I do not advocate anyone taking the brunt of emotion and angst in all of this. Except OYS or General Lee, they enjoy the attention.

Oh, I agree . . . . You'll notice that these threads don't get started by AAI pilots, they are almost all started by SWA FO's.

Then, when we respond, we're the bad guys . . . the bad attitudes . . . . the "culture killers" . . . . blah, blah, blah.

The difference between SWA pilots and AirTran pilots is . . . . . . ready for this? NOTHING. Zip. Zilch, nada.
