[quote=CRJDriver;447409]That's what I have said in one of my earlier posts. I would not be surprised if performance was the reason DL backed out on this deal.

MONTH-TO-DATE PERFORMANCE:

Completion: 93%
D-Zero: 63.6%
A14: 66.9%
Baggage: 18.1

Even with performance as bad as it has been, I am quite confident (for some reason) that Delta already took that into consideration before deciding to initially "award" the aircraft to Comair. As has already been posted, the most likely reason for the latest renege is that Mesa is dragging their feet (can't blame them) again. I actually read through the transcript of the Mesa conference call (Symb: MESA) and J.O. specifically states that they believe they have been wronged on both accounts and that they intend to fight both attempts by Delta to remove Freedom from DCI.

Until this all gets resolved, everyone needs to just relax and maintain the same professionalism we've continued to demonstrate during these recent "tough" times. Comair is what it is right now, and while that may not be a good thing, we, the crewmembers, etc. can do a lot to make things a little better. A good attitude towards your job and your fellow crewmembers is a nice place to start. Best of luck to everyone over the next few months and see you out on the line.....(or ready reserve chair).....
