Did you not have a contract about how they are being paid?
I saw the memo which painted a pretty bleak picture of GoJets future, but taking away bonuses sounds like fraud?

What did that memo have to say? And if the contract is like any regionals I have seen, it probably mentions the bonuses are subject to change at any time

Bonuses were paid outside the contract, so in other words, NO, it looks like they can choose not to pay them and you are free to walk away.

if it does, the hand slapping check airman with the British accent is possibly going to have trouble finding a job.

haha oh I remember that guy, I always thought of him as a total Ahole. The few former GoJeters I meet always have a story involving him usually ending up with him as the Ahole

I enjoyed my time there at GoJet and there are some great people there. I feel bad y'all are going through this but keep the head high. The last couple messages from management doesn't sound the most promising but there are so many variables still moving so hang tough.

WASHINGTON—The government won’t take a stake in small airlines seeking federal aid as part of a $2.2 trillion economic-stimulus package passed amid the coronavirus pandemic, the Treasury Department said Friday.

The department said airlines requesting less than $100 million in payroll-assistance grants won’t be required to provide financial stakes in exchange for the aid “as a result of benefits to the public,” including requirements that the companies maintain needed air service and refrain from involuntary furloughs or layoffs.


This just came out today. Anyone know how much or if GoJet requested $$$$ ?
I'm not sure what the Treasury Dept deems small , but looks like they are giving small airlines the green light to furlough & cut routes as needed

Interesting, that complicates things a bit. I just hope that they start sending out assistance soon. I would think as of now, the clock is a-ticking for many airlines.

No. It says that they need to refrain from furloughs.

Will GoJet continue to pay out bonuses to those who complete training and fulfill the benchmarks?

$100k per DEC is a lot of money with not a lot coming in.
