Default ExpressJet contact number HELP ! Stranded....

I am trying to get back from an interview with XJT and need help from anyone who has any XJT contact numbers.
I am currently stranded at IAH because the plane out of ATL broke and we diverted to BTR in time for the WX to roll through.
Once I finally got to IAH, my connection was gone. I can get another flight to close to home but United won't let me fly because the XJT ticket specifies that I cannot change cities.

IF I can have someone from XJT speak to them before the flight leaves in an hour, they'll let me board, but I only have business hour ph numbers.

PM me with ANY after hours/ non Customer service numbers so I can get home.

Any, all info helps !

Your best bet is to find a hotel in Houston. Unfortunately, no one will be able to help you. If you can convince the gate agent, you may be in luck to get to your destination.

No, I did not.
Marooned in Houston.....XJT is telling me that they can't do anything until Monday.

It is striking to me that someone I have never met and do not even know tried to help me with a buddy pass. The regional airline I just interviewed with ? Not so much.....

Tell them you won't accept the job offer if they don't help you out. See if we have some leverage yet...

That was very generous of Pilotgolfer. Although I have no experience in the pilot career, I do understand that pilots must stick together and help each other when they can because it is obvious many of their employers couldn't care less. I know when I make it, if I make it, I'd help whoever I can.

As for XJT, I've read plenty of horror stories while lurking on this site, and this adds to it.

Sorry you're stuck in Houston. At least it is a nice place, although I'd much prefer to be stuck in Austin!

.....or at least get reimbursed for the hotel as it was because of their broke acft that this happened in the first place.

Update: Finally heard back from XJT after midnight, early Sun morning. They are going to try n' git me out later this morning.

Don't take the job. That's an indicator of how things are done at XJT. Stay far away.
