Agreed. Every thing here is tongue-in-cheek sarcasm when talking about management--hard to convey with the printed word.
RJ routes, hmmm....maybe you have not been on the west coast to see the decimation of our former 737 flying. We had CA locked up, and drove SWA out of SFO, yes, they abandoned SFO while our Shuttle was flying. UAL owned CA and most of the west coast. OAK was ours. Been to OAK lately?
Hence, most of that was given to the RJ's. So, yes, I'm glad to see those legs finally back to the mainline. It seems the only reason is due to our incredibly inept management. They managed our assets so poorly, they had no choice but to put mainline planes back in.
Outsource everything! Well, maybe it's time to outsource the CEO?
