He was the CCO. It absolutely was his fault. He was in charge of the route structure he certainly had a say on whether or not to park airplanes.
I forgot about his "we don't need a good inflight product our route is the product."
As far as AUS. The company was violating the contract. Period. They were running podunk regional routes in order to maintain minimum gate usage. So his decision to hub AUS in the first place was.........a failure. Along with everything else he did.
