The good news is that those pilots losing jobs at GoJet will most likely find other jobs in the industry. But you don’t wont to be locked in with a contract if it happens.
It’s like playing the stock market. Is the above guaranteed? No, but you need to do your research and make the best move with public information.

Also, the TA is hardly "long-term" at 3 years.

We have heard that 20-30 of our 60 Ejets are moving to a new base for us in ORD so the E175SC’s that Xjet is getting will be placed in IAH initially.
