Mesa is going to get a 10 year CPA agreement with this deal supporting United flying according to the rueters article.

"Republic will continue to operate flights for American Airlines (AAL.O), opens new tab, Delta Air Lines (DAL.N), opens new tab, and United Airlines (UAL.O), opens new tab under the existing capacity purchase agreements (CPA), while Mesa will support United Airlines under a new 10-year CPA, as a result of this deal, the companies said."

 

And an even more impressive view in January. Looking forward to heading to training. Would love to know if the Mesa domiciles will now be options for new hires! Sure living closer to family is great, but its cold up there, like the southern places much better! lol

 

Well played by United. I'm sure Republic's deep pockets can handle it fine.

I'm sure the Mesa side of the house will see a marked improvement across all operational metrics now that they will have access to more competantly run operations.

 

wasn't referring to land footprint, was referring to not being run out of a hangar building at an airport like many regionals, or a store front in a mall like a few LCC's were not too long ago.

I've been to and trained at all three legacy facilities. Yep, much larger footprint, but technology wise until very recently only United competed. Facility wise, the Republic campus beats all three legacy carriers in technology adoption and layout and amenities planning. Last I checked, none of them had their own crew hotel attached to the traning center by skybridge. Lounges everywhere with coffee, water, espresso everywhere. No paper tigers anywhere. Computer FMS labs, about 9 or 10 flat panel FTD's, and 10 sim bays. Last I checked only AA and Republic had crew outfitters stores right at their training center... Delta has one a few blocks away. As regionals go, adjusted for size, the Republic campus is the nicest I've seen. Full disclosure, I haven't seen the new Utah facility.

 

yes, exactly. You'd never see this at a regional not too long ago.


filler.....

 

Are we seriously jerking off over training facilities? I'd much rather that money be re-invested into the bank accounts of the employees. But that's just me.

 

This is a rather sad desire. Not everything is about money in your pocket...lol

 

Republic ceo leaving to run the FAA. Maybe J.O will eventually run the newly formed Republic.
if so , he will steal , lie and manipulate the system. Republic will be BK in 3 years if Jo is anywhere around lol 😂

 

unless you want one for your room. ask me how i know.

 

so does “while Mesa will support United Airlines under a new 10-year CPA” mean that mesa and republic; aircraft, crew, and bases will remain separate and not integrate as one?
