Guys, you are wasting your time on this. No decision will be made. I have said it before; the case was settled out of court. Mesa’s move from JFK to CVG and a reduction in flying is part of the settlement. This information is based on my opinion only.

A settlement "out of court" is just that and happens before the judges/jury can rule or express their final opinion. Delta wouldnt have to "give up" to settle. Both parties could mutually agree to certain terms such as reduced rates, reduced number of airframes, defined performance metrics, back payment for cancelled segments.... sometimes it is in their best financial interest to settle instead of paying a team of lawyers to go to court. I think if we were going to see a settlement favoring mesa we would have in the beginning of this. Delta has deeper pockets and can keep pushing this court case until mesa is financially forced to accept deltas settlement or gamble on paying a huge legal bill by taking this to the courts decision.
delta is not playing nice and mesa is trying to preserve cash....
