Check this article out. From yesterday Flight Global.
Disputed Mesa ERJs heading back into service at Delta
The last sentence is the kicker.

That is the case. I hear Delta is paying for the concourse and they are reaching out to the local and state governments for help with the bill.

Simple math, allow me to explain:
Delta + X = (Delta + DCI)
X = Lowest Bidder
Lowest Bidder = Mesa
Wouldn't surprise me at all at this point...

The first rule of fight club is... don't talk about fight club. And the first rule of Comair is... update your resume every month.

The injunction says that Delta must give freedom back the same amount of flying they had prior to the announcement to cnx their flying.
...so Delta gave them everything they did out of JFK before and some of Comair's routes to cover the flying that had already been trimmed. They also received flying out of cvg to cover what was lost in MCO.

Then Delta files BK and tells Comair it can't meet the contractual obligations for 34 growth aircraft because they're in bankruptcy, but somehow gets 14 900s and leases them to Mesa for a buck a month?
So now Delta tries to dump Mesa, gets stopped in their tracks, and Comair loses flying and furloughs pilots as a result. Real nice.
Reserve (airline) sucks.

CR7/9 Bid packets are out for those who care. Small increase in flying due to the 31 day month. Still taking about furloughs around November. Looking forward to flying the CR9 from ATL to freakin' Mobile, AL... Not! Lot's of crappy trips...
