!
you are misreading my post. If it was confirmed I wouldn't say "I think" I would say "I know"Btw excluding small time union leadership issues I agree with you 99% of the time.

ASA has never done that, and to date, has not asked for concessions in exchange for airplanes in the current negotiations. They already know what the answer will be. Our MEC is weak, but it has limits.

Hard to say. My gut instinct is that PCL will disappoint everyone by narrowly approving the draconian concessions, thus keeping maybe 40 -900s, losing the majority of their -200s, and totally screwing the rest of us in negotiations. But if PCL folds, the only other serious DCI CRJ operator outside the SKW family is GoJets, and I think they are already spread too thin. I think L-ASA is positioned very well going forward. I also expect L-ASA to pick up quite a bit of the coming UAL 700/900 flying.

That said, if MIA opens as a base, it will be one of our most senior, considering how many FL commuters we have.

The MRJ agreement is not finalized and it will be interesting if Embraer or Bombardier want to create a 76 seater to compete.
