Haven't heard many bad things... hm. Quite simply we are about as close to death as an airline as you can possibly be and yet still operate day to day. From over 100 planes since the PDT/ALG merger to 44 now. All of our routes can be operated by an RJ (and are) except for one (1). So you say DHC-8s are more fuel efficient than these 50 seat RJ's? Well sadly we are locked into a long term agreement with AWAC for 70 of these 50 seaters, PSA has a large number of them as well. Those aircraft have to be flown someplace and a majority of their routes are former PDT/ALG routes. Our president says that Tempe has given him the green light to spend market rate to lease more 100s and 300s and yet we are out bid by Commutair for 300s (this is a fact and the excuse given by our cp that CAL gave them money is false). So either we were in fact not authorized to spend market rates on new aircraft or our president is just afraid to spend actual market rates for new (used) aircraft. Oh... but tempe will spend money on this: US Airways expects to spend $35m on Express two-class upgrade Anyway, good luck in your interview. If you come here you will fly with some of the greatest people in the industry and that is fact. Also, please let us know what they tell you in the interview regarding the future of this place as they tell us nothing. Oh, if they tell you that we have pref hiring with USairways that is 100% false.
