I agree... That plus the fact that Airwhiskey has been awful with on time and cx'ed flight. Piedmont is however just as bad.

Parker will give them a bottle line number and there's choices to be made.

Whiskey people will not be taking a pay cut, they are already on a concessionary contract that is still better than most.


Then they'll be fighting the same battle that envoy is.

I'm not bashing Awac but the writing is on the wall for them.Aag or United nor delta wants their aging 50 seat fleet.If I were in your shoes I would definitely look elsewhere. This time next year they will be doing a slow wind down and if they are still around it will only be a handful of planes flying very very short routes.If I worked at Awac I wouldn't try to ride this out. It's not going to get any better.

Had a friend get hired by AWAC not to long ago as an F/O. Says its not a bad deal and the people are good but there is absolutely no talk about the long term future of the company. Said he is going to stay with them as long as possible and build his time and try to move on to someplace else. I hope others at AWAC have a plan B just in case.

Yup, and then they go around spouting off every chance they get! It's really sad to see the complete and udder lack of any professionalism that the bottom feeders are attracting these days.
