On a rare occasion we buy our own fuel for repos, most of the time you’re landing with a lot of extra fuel. The customers are already saving a lot of money, they buy their fuel from us at a heavily discounted price since we have contracted rates. Some places we buy so much fuel it’s almost half the price per gallon.

The cost savings for us is on a different level than the conventional airline.

I referred to the gojet guys because they were the biggest influx of regional pilots we had about 2 years ago. They come well trained with good experience from a regimented regional. They have succeeded well here and unfortunately a lot have moved on to greener pastures. On the other side it’s nice to see they have been able to move to something better. We have a mix of experiences here.
