So nobody thinks Skywest is doing this flying at a loss? These CRJs were going bye-bye anyways ... is Uncle Jerry on the hook for the payments whether they're flying or not? Isn't the US Airways flying at a loss?
Exactly. Every time I bring this up, Skywest people get on and say its not true. People have told me it was fact checked and confirm the flying is perhaps not at a loss but not at a profit either. It's a smart business move but killer on the competition. They had planes coming out of the DAL system with nowhere to go. Better to fly at a small loss, than a bigger loss with the plane parked and still having to make
payments.
