As a former TSH pilot, I hope you guys get some good news down the road, even though we all know how uncle Hulas is. CP crews have always been professional and pretty down the earth. Hope you guys get your resumes updated and calls start coming in from the bigger carriers. Keep your heads up and good luck moving forward!

This is very similar to what went on in the 1990s, with Delta buying acquiring Commair and ASA, AA and American Eagle and the others. The down fall of all these will be your flow into the majors, if it was slow before, it will be slower now. This that gave the time should try to get in through the outside. The faster you get to where you want to be, the better off you will be when the slow down comes. I would also look on going overseas, 5 years overseas, you'll be making legacy money, and now you have the experience.
Good luck to all.
Good luck to all.

Preferential ALPA hiring. Don't worry about some lateral or downward move to non union Skywest. If your nose is clean and furloughed in this economy you'll be at a ALPA legacy before you can blink.
Remember how many Compass pilots are at Delta and now on the hiring board. They are watching the situation closely.

Former compass here. Good luck everyone. I think you'll all be okay. This is still a good time in the industry with lots of hiring and movement. It will definitely be painful shrinking so much and having flying shifted around, but I think you'll all end up in a better place.
Just try to avoid going to Skywest (I understand if you have to), I just can't stand their pretentious attitude on here and everywhere else.

However, I haven’t read any OO koolaid. In fact, it seems like your thread has more “pretentious” attitudes from other airlines. If you all did come to OO you would be welcomed with open arms but I sincerely hope you all get legacy/LLC/ or get additional flying for your lifers.
Your OO hate is lame and adds nothing to the thread and creates angst among the pilot groups.
Good luck everyone, seriously.
