They had about 100 million in a warchest of which a portion was slated to cover the losses at operating below cost in Hawaii. It'll be interesting to see what happens, Mesa won't have the cash to cover those $20 seats anymore. Will their ticket prices rise? The RJ costs more per seat mile on those short hops than Hawaiian's 717s, that is a fact. So with Mesa's ticket price the same as Hawaiian and Aloha will customers continue to buy GO tickets? Most likely not. Mesa will probably go! the way that Mahalo, Mid-Pac and Discovery went. Stay tuned.
