This is just my opinion but I really think if Inc. was so concerned about getting the costs of the XJT under control, they would have done something about in the last three years other than let us sit on our hands while the lights are turned off one by one. Every other regional in that time frame has seemed to blossom into something great but XJT, nah, unsalvagable, shut it down boys, problem solving is hard.

And what did you think they'd say? Um, we bought Express Jet to gain a big chunk of the market share. That's all. How long did it take them to put that deal together to buy Express Jet anyways? IIRC, I think that it was quite a while. I seriously doubt they did that without doing their research.

They could have made it all work but the anti-union is too strong. The XJT and ASA MEC were all for negotiating something for all three pilot groups that was beneficial to all sides. Instead they decided to do it their way thinking they could get the XJT and ASA pilot group go for their concessions. And they might still succeed. But in the meantime they have squandered hundreds of thousands of dollars and thousands of jobs.
