Comair didn't take Delta flying. Comair started service to cities that no one flew to out of CVG...that's how they made so much money. It wasn't anyone's flying to take. Delta purchased Comair because it was such a money maker/threat (don't know which) Comair did not start as a low cost regional taking flying from mainline...they started markets that mainline didn't service..and then serviced them with jets. Just for the record

All this bickering aside, I'd like to thank the professionals at Comair for their hard work and taking us jumpseaters, sometimes going well out of their way to do so. I wish them the best of luck, and hopefully they can find some good employment soon.

I feel bad for the employees of Comair, but Comair's demise is another glaring example of why some regionals should operate his or her own operation and stop depending on major legacy airlines for feed. If a regional is unable then line up and become fodder for whatever whims your favorite legacy has in store. Sure its about money, but its more about your life!
