For those of you capable of producing a lucid and meaningful answer please chime in. Note: I think most everyone on here is capable of this but my goal in starting this thread was not to make yet another place to flame and bash JO and Mesa.
What do you see in the future for Mesa? Will they be bought? Go bankrupt? I want to hear some honest guesses as to what is going to happen.
Don't worry, I'm not trying to go there, I have a nice part 91 Citation gig for now.
Easy there!
The future of Mesa is extremely uncertain. I wondered why they gave JO a 3 year extension but then I remembered, JO's no the only idiot in the house. In my mind the only hope for MAG's employees is in being sold. I feel that someone will take them over but not until MAG's lawsuits are over with. Yes they were ordered to pay $80M plus legal fees to Hawaiian but I think a lawsuit from Aloha is just around the corner.
But I feel that these lawsuits aren't the largest of MAG's problems. In the near future US Airways and UAL will be looking for new carriers to pick up MAG's flying. They've just become too much of a liability with poor performance in MANY categories.
I wish the best for ALL MAG employees!
