Seems the contract is ok, the only downside people gripe about is the fact they are 50 seat jet only. For me this is no problem but if I was to spend a length of time here when oil costs go up the fleet is at higher risk of being parked. So I can see there is only 1 disadvantage.
Any thought on this? where are the 13 jets coming from?
thanks
The 13 are part of the original contract from United. The delivery schedule was supposed to be finished this month but was slowed down due to hiring.
I wouldn't worry about it being a 50 seat operator. Compass and GoJet are also owned by TSH. With the current shortage of new hires across the industry, if things got bad enough they could park the least lucrative contracts and merge airlines.
