So the prevailing rumor is that Trans States has purchased Comair. January 1st timeframe.

-it would make sense with the Trans States job fairs in CVG to get senior Comair pilots back to first year pay.

-Aren't the latest round of buyouts for January 2nd?

-Wasn't one of the old Chief pilots hired by Trans States to be the Director of Flight Operations?

That would be interesting if you are correct. Just to be clear thought there is trans states airlines and trans states holdings. Trans states holdings owns Trans states airlines, Gojet and Compass. The previous CP from OH works as the DO of Trans states airlines.

And while it is entirely possible that they could buy Comair, there would be no seniority list integration as Trans States Holdings would be the one to buy them.

In my humble opinion, Comair will not be sold till we’re down to 44 airplanes and with new contracts from all 3 groups. You might be on the right track but I think your time frame is a little off. This is strictly my opinion and not a rumor I heard from a flight attendant the walks RA’s dog

Nice to see that the thread is still open and alive...occasionally! I'm glad I moved on to Delta Tech Ops. I would be out of a job if I had stayed. My previous co-workers were shown the door on the 2nd. I've heard employees are continually leaving on a weekly basis to bigger and better things. It's not even safe at DL. I hope you guys can move on to greener pastures as well.

What did I do you ask? Of course, I sign up for extra flying!

Fast forward several days.
I'm on a 24 hour overnight in the caribbean and my phone rings, the # is from OH scheduling. I don't answer it but, successfully log back in to Emaestro and see they have assigned me a taxi in DTW and a 4 day trip a few days later!! What the f...?

TRUE STORY.

F'ing morons!!
That is the funniest story I have read!! I had something similar like assigning me a line a whole month after i resigned!..LOL!

Glad to hear you're still doing well. I wasn't sure what was going to happen to you guys in MX. I think many of us on here have moved on. It's still hard to believe what has been happening at Comair over the last decade. This used to be the place to be.
