I don't know how true this is, so I was curious if anyone else heard of anything. However, if it is true, that could sort of be embarrassing for SKYW Management, especially during an earnings conference and after Midwest Airlines selected them to fly 15-25 planes.
Oh BTW ellen, early FEB is about at the bottom of the post-holiday airline slow-down. Any airline has it's deepest reserve coverage at this point in time, so it would be hard to make a dent with a few sick-calls. That sort of thing works a lot better during peak travel season
