Since I'm at SKW I would love to think well be getting all future growth but I don't really have that feeling. And I have plenty of insight.
You "thought"? Our contract is readily available online. Read it instead of guessing. We have no guarantees of anything except in the extremely rare instance that airplanes are directly transferred, which will never happen. The reason you will get all growth, is because with no actual contract, you provide the company the "competitive flexibility" they think they need and have been pounding us to give them in negotiations. Your "contract" can be modified with the sending of an internal memo. Ours is expensive to modify (violate). Therefore, they would rather deal with your side.
L-ASA always showed a willingness to work with SKYW toward mutual goals. With the acquisition of XJT, we've taken on a majority who wants to poke the company in the eye and burn it down just because we can. SKYW wants no part of that. As far as I am concerned, our fate was sealed the day we got a common FAA certificate.
