I think I bounced around my living room laughing and crying. I remember things were getting so much better through 2019 until I left for Spirit. Then covid happened....

But as for Xjet/ASA, yea, it wasn't great. I remember we didn't agree to a JCBA until it was official that the CRJ side was gone. I remember I flew with ASA pilots who transitioned to the 145 and they were all great. Xjet was a great experience for a regional but definitely glad I got hired by Spirit when I did.
I love flying with regional guys on transcons…. “Yeah, no, I really want to hear about how everything went down at the RJ place”. I zone out, nod off a couple times, “what? No I’m totally listening, express jet stole all your flying… from…. tl/dr….zzzz”

… and before I know it 5 hours has gone by and I’m being cleared 25L in LAX.
