You don’t work for UA, you are a subcontractor for UA. Yes they own a minority stake in Xjet but that doesn’t entitle you to their profits.

You want UA $$ get hired at UA pure and simple.

Dear ExpressJet colleagues:
I send this email to respond to questions and queries from many of you.
Working together, in our first 8 months as an independent ExpressJet, we have made great strides in establishing the growth path we all desire. Flying our new E175s and increasing our ERJ145 production will fuel our future. So, I’m disappointed to see ALPA’s recently launched media campaign designed to discourage pilots from joining ExpressJet (www.ExpressJetFacts.com, attached postcard mailer, etc).
While you consider the implications of the campaign on our Company, I want to reiterate your leadership team’s commitment to work with you to realize the ExpressJet vision: We will be the United Express carrier that best understands and fulfills the needs of United Airlines.

Blah blah blah lots of hot air...money talks. United posted a $1.1 BILLION dollar profit in Q2 alone. It's time for them to start fulfilling some our of needs too. I don't foresee this campaign going away anytime soon until we get their attention.

Commutairs Vision:

“We want to prosper by becoming United Airlines’ regional airline partner of choice. Their first phone call!”

So we’re supposed to best Understand and Fullfill United’s needs but Commutair will be their first choice and phone call? Got it.

Love how neither vision talks about delivering a good, safe or dependable product to our customers. Both are focused on just serving United.

Subodh is a hack.

Go hang out on the UA forum and explain how everyone should accept scope adjustments for more RJ’s and “be humble”.

I’ve never been fired from a job in my life. Just goes to show how much you believe in what you read on APC..

I don’t understand the letter Subodh wrote. The email gave no details, no responses.

Scope is a non-starter.
