The "all RJ" white elephant terminal in CVG, the 50 seat jets, etc. - all money losers.
And sailingfun is right about the pilots. The senior guys are poison.
Management wouldn't touch them with a 10 foot pole (or a stapler). And no other airline wants that headache.
The flight attendants are no picnic either.
Comair is a write-off.
It might be now, but it is still an asset we own. Why didn't we award our flying to our subsidiary and flip it?
If it is a write off (and it probably is) how much of our money did we destroy? Can't call it anything but lousy management.
