OK it might be time to face the cold hard facts here - ExpressJet is just a better run operation than ASA at this point in time. SkyWest is also a very well run operation, very efficient, with good compensation, which is why they are continuing to win RFP's.

I work for a company that is expensive, not only in wages but in overall cost structure, which prevents them from winning these RFP's. Don't be jealous they are building a better mousetrap, that has nothing to do with undercutting.
