Mesa Merger Scenarios
#31
me to calm down is assanine
Enough with the thread drift though. Back to the original posters question; many scenarios could happen, and speaking with my friends who are active at the MEC there, they say that while mgt. / employee relations aren’t peachy, the BK is progressing and they should exit soon. As well as the relationship with USA is actually good and a contract renewal looks good too. So a successful exit, followed by a takeover could happen. Ok, I’ll concede that a liquidation scenario does exist but is the least likely one. But again, who the heck knows?

This article mentions Mesa/US Air contract negotiations and that something hopefully will be announced soon regarding a "capacity purchase agreement"

As far as I know a "capacity purchase agreement" is what Mesa already has with US. No different than any other regional/mainline "code share." Resigning the contract would be good news, Mesa doesn't need another 500 furloughs...

You are correct. MAG is currently operating under "capacity purchase agreements" with all of it's code-share partners as opposed to "revenue sharing agreements".
Many major airline partners are upset that their outsourced "code-share" partners are profiting during these hard times and are now attempting to renegotiate future contracts away from CPA's and return to the RSA models of the past so that the "express" operators can share the pain.
