I bet Everyone that operates RJs from T-1 will go to Concourse C. Also, Skywest, Continental, and Freedom. They are building a very nice bus stop outside security to transport people somewhere and I believe C is the only place to go with that.
No one operates from T-1 any more, other than Fed Ex Parks there. U.S. Airways was the last to operate out of there and they moved to T-2 in April of 2007. All DCI carriers will operate from A and B terms.
Here's something that's floated around for a while. There might be a "merger" with Mesaba, in which that'll be the name retained. And with Mesaba just because their operating costs are lower than Comair's. Now, with it does happen, would that nulify the Comair contract?. If so, then it makes sense. If it doesn't, then what's the point?.
Personally with either scenario, I don't forsee a recall for those of us furlough for quite sometime. Time to move on.

Now, correct me if I'm wrong. If there's a merger in which the Comair name/company is maintained, don't they have to recall the guys that were furlough if the "new" company ends up with people junior to them?. And what if they other company is the one standing?, wouldn't it be the same case?.

Do not listen to our seior captains who say it will be DOH merger, that is BS. Do not confuse Seniority with Longevity
A merger would be relative seniority, with people furloughed put on the very bottom of the list.

Blue moon is correct. I spoke to a union rep and told me the same thing. Time to move on.

Your wrong...please look at America West v USAir for what will probably happen with seniority integration. It will happen like that and be jsut as ugly.

Sorry, T-2 is what I meant. They will take all of those guys and put them at C. Then they could put FedEx at T-2 and plow T-1 as planned.

He said it was the FAA guy in charge of CVG ramp operations. I didn't type it right the first time. He didn't say his exact title but he said he was definitely a fed.
