Do you think INC enjoys losing money? They have been negotiating the contracts to improve the revenue side and they have been working hard to improve cost incl. what many at XJET considered a concessionary contract.
The end result is still revenue < cost and I don't think it is for lack of trying.
You can argue who's fault it is but I don't think anyone would want to shut it down if they had a choice.
As for giving XJET more profitable 2 cabin class flying .... What do you'd I with your money? Take it to a bank that delivers 5% interest or one that gives you 1% interest?
