Well Skywest was warned in 2008 that majority of XJT pilots rejected the idea of then buying XJT. Couple of dumbasses like Chip at SKW proceeded with the decision thinking they will beat XJT into submission. Overall it was a loss for Skywest. The blame belongs at Skywest for ever buying XJT and forcing them to play nice with ASA.

That’s like when I was there “everyone is noticing!” Unfortunately it meant everyone was noticing the place was going upside down. They fed us that a lot when the OO peeps were in charge with BH and even the flt ops management.
Just a damn shame. Can’t imagine there would be anything they can bid on. Hard to do business when you’re an airline that owns nothing.
I think xjt is done and it’s been taken out to pasture like good ole yeller’
Just hope everyone left over can find a way out. A lot of good people remained there.

IMPORTANT and URGENT update to my note on pass travel from 8 days ago. It will impact active employees and many of the 2,500+ registered retirees – so please forward to any retiree in your rolodex as we don’t have accurate contact information for all of them.
United has notified us that they will cease all pass travel benefits for ExpressJet employees and retirees who are not “grandfathered” into retiree benefits at the time of the 2002 Continental Express spin off.
Unless you hear otherwise, employees and retirees who do not fall under the Continental or Continental Express retiree category should plan for their United Pass Travel benefits to stop at any time starting tomorrow October 09, 2020.
While we have requested United to extend this deadline, there is no certainty that this will happen. Therefore, please urgently adjust your plans accordingly.
(We will separately evaluate the impact on cobus travel.)
Were you “grandfathered” into retiree benefits at the time of the 2002 Continental Express Spin off?Employees and retirees of Continental and Continental Express at the time that Continental Express was a wholly owned subsidiary of Continental (circa 2002), and who were eligible for retirement, based on age and years of service as of January 11, 2011, or earlier, are grandfathered into the retiree travel policies of United as per the agreement established at that time. Information about these employees and retirees is based on their records in Continental’s legacy “Compass” HR System.

If your airlines alive then yes. ASA lost delta benefits with xjt going under our retirees lose them as well. UAL could do the right thing and grandfather all retirees some who flew 20+ years for coex uax but core4 is BS.
