Ha!! I find it interesting that you throw the scab word around considering your airline just merged with another that is widely known to have tons of ACTUAL scabs.
I'm an expert on that behavior. Having worked with enough of the underbelly of aviation I feel comfortable in what I have observed with the VX pilot group. As they say, if it looks like a waiter, it is paid like a waiter



It seems to me you absolutely understand that your airlines "product" stinks to high heaven. Most of your flights are flown by regional airlines.
Our product stinks? From the number of passengers carried I dont think the rest of the world agrees with you. Haven't heard too many of our first or business pax complain about the sleeper suites or service on my flights. Heck I haven't heard too many complaints from anyone. But I am sure YOU know better. How about passing the word to the other pilots dressed as waiters from VX not come over and bum rides on us anymore. Seeing as how we stink. I prefer not subject one of your guys to our service so I'll "just say no" from now on. Thanks for clearing that up. Being civil to you guys wasn't easy. Glad we cleared the air

Don't get block hours confused with takeoff and landings. RJ flying is greater than I would ever want but the Airline flies more block hours. So another swing and a miss for a waiter.

Explain why you and fish are so threatened by a small LCC?
Why? Because you guys are willing to gain market share by undercutting the cost to fly the trip. If we do it, you call it predatory. If you guys do it, you say you're trying to establish market share. You guys are pariahs in the industry and the sooner VX is dead the sooner you guys can go to work for Skybus II or the next version of Sacrificial Aiways that comes along.
