Expressjet is a good company with a good contract. Unfortunately, Skywest didn’t invest in us and let us whittle away for years. United is turning this place around already but it’s still going to take a lot more work.
United? Just because United has part ownership in the company doesn’t mean they are fixated on ensuring the success of Expressjet. United has clearly shown in recent years they care more for a diversified regional network so they can continue to award flying to the lowest bidders. I’m sure ExpressJet is no higher on the priority list than any of the other SEVEN regional partners UAL works with.
