Ha. There's no need to do that. They just pulled PBS and took all the gains away we had. There's really nothing left to strip out now.

The contract should be the least of your worries.....

I'm not worried about anything. I'm out in like 2 weeks anyways. lmao

If the court doesn't just let Mesa out of paying the leases on the parked aircraft they have 0% shot at making out of this.

Yea but what are the odds if that happening. The court doesn't want to raise unemployment any more than it is right now either...

He says they'll continue to pay employees, but doesn't BK ultimately allow for petitions to alter labor agreements as part of any final restructuring ?

In other words, look for contract decimation to the bone, including pay.

Additionally, regardless whether they win or lose against Delta, Delta will be dump them at the first opportunity and this will only leave U as the major carrier partner, so look for a noticable reduction of the current fleet and that means more downgrades and furloughs for pilots. There will probably be noticable downsizing even before Delta kicks Mesa to the curb as noted in the statement.

Again, it would be wise for Mesa employees to see the clear writing on the wall (no one can deny this now). Mesa has little future and those that do remain for any extended period of time can expect a company that scrapes the bottom of the barrel even more then it does now.....a lot more.

Employees should consider Mesa a tempoary method of avoiding the hassles of unemployment and should agressively seek firmer ground for theirs and their families future.

But do remember.......your considerate friend Johnny wishes you a very merry christmas and happy new year !

its actually more what the creditors want, the court is more of a mediator.

eaglefly

The courts primary responsibility is to the creditors.

(Phuz beat me to it by a minute)

I'd say the odds are still there. United and DAL can now break contract and I wouldn't be surprised if they do.

Can the courts prevent Delta and United from doing that?
