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).....

I see what you are saying on the Mesa front, but I am not really sure that you see the big picture yet ont the "Comair is what it is" note. You can continue to walk around with your head held high and a big grin on your face, but I can tell you that in 5 years things haven't changed one bit. Sure keeping a good attitude is good for any employee/employer, but there comes a point when you just run your people down and I believe Comair is reaching that point. It seems that nobody at this place is ever held accountable for thier actions except the crewmembers. Pretty soon they are going to be asking you guys to bring in your own chairs from home because they "can't afford" to replace the broken one you are sitting in. But hey, Keep Smiling.
