And look at skywest in slc, I don't think hardly ANYONE aside skywest and daddy d go in there. I think it speaks measures about deltas feelings on comair, when it's us and freedom sharing bases in Cvg and jfk.
Steve B talked to my recurrent ground the other day and it wasn't the usual company Kool aid. He was practically pleading with us about on time performance criteria so we "look good for the rest of the world". And admitted to all of us that comairs ENTIRE business model is based on mesa gong under. There is no plan if mesa survives and their delta flying sticks. Listening to him was like listening to someone say their last words.
Pretty sure the ASA ATL thing is 80% and it is Skywest inc not ASA. Also it is predicated on them being the 2nd cheapest DCI carrier after next year. They will not fall into that category. Delta is currently very close to that 80% number. Pinnacle, skywest and comair fly a ton of 900's out of there every day as well as erj 175 from RAH. While I don't believe anything S.B. ever has to say I do agree with him on this. point.
