Really?????
Delta and ALPA gave me my job, I didn't outsource it or take it away from anybody.
But I do like pumpkin pie, apple pie, pecan pie. Especially this time of year.

Never once have I blamed Republic pilots for what their airline has become. That blame solely and 100% lies on BB. It is extremely unfortunate what he is doing to this industry and is doing to the future of your company. You guys are fighting an uphill battle against completely corrupt and inept management that is bent on destroying both your jobs and our profession as a whole.

Still waiting for the Republic pilots to address the Non Rev issue facing the Midwest flight crews.

Good observation. Humanity has a long way to go on the road to bettering itself. This is exactly why myself and the other decent people working in aviation never judged or looked down on Mesa pilots. Judge rah pilots all you want but we've done nothing wrong. It's just business, deal with it. Harsh? You betcha. But that's life in capitalistic America. I've been in your shoes twice before so I say you can handle it graciously if you choose to. I did. Merry xmas everyone. Even to you Larry, Curly, and Moe. I hope the future is much kinder to you and your peers than this past year has been.

Here's what the Rev. Wackjob had to say in a weekly sermon to his subjects:
"I know non-rev travel is an important aspect of the benefits package we enjoy at Republic,
Frontier and Midwest. Rest assured we are taking the necessary steps to make this key benefit
even better. I anticipate that we will soon implement some exciting enhancements. In the
meantime, I appreciate your understanding and patience."
I guess the exciting enhancement for the F'd MEH folks is since you cannot afford to travel you don't need the benefit. Like it really is a benefit anymore anyway.
Merry Christmas

"No man can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he will hold to the one, and despise the other. You cannot serve *** and mammon."
Back on topic. I don't get how the claim of making Midwest a virtual airline isn't lost on the supposed loyal Midwest customers.

and don't forget the golden rule: he who has the gold makes the rules.
everyone is sour grapes but this will always be the case. if you don't like it, save your money and buy your own airline - then you can make the rules instead of ripping the employees.
