11% D-0

Walking through the B terminal and seeing lines of people at the service desks getting rebooked and vouchers because of cancellations.

Gate agents hiding in the jetways because they don't want to face the peeps and clean up the Mesamess.

Mesa pilots walking through the terminal looking like whipped dogs, afraid to look anyone in the eyes or untucked their tails.

The McDonalds at the 30ish gates can't make enough dollar menu burgers quick enough to feed all the poor Mesa FOs. (I hear they are hiring more help for you reserve FOs not being used)

And why are all of the Mesa FAs always sprinting from gate to gate?

I really hope you guys are able to turn it around in DFW, if not it's probably okay because AA won't give you the boot since you own the airplanes.

Do you just sit in the terminal watching Mesa crews and write everything down in your little "I Hate Mesa" notepad?? That's weird bro, use that energy on a hobby or getting a girlfriend.

Well, it is pretty obvious if you spend even 5 mins there. The OP isn't hating on you, it seems like he's asking an honest question.

Awwwww little Lima86 is sad because he didn't get to fly the shiny planes and upgrade like the other kids...poor little Lima86 ((

% D0 means nothing if a huge fraction of the delays are on Eagle rampers

Our DFW operation will be fine once everything has shaken out from Eagle's mess and our crews there have adjusted to the huge shakeup in base structure.

Our United ops are top-notch and performing excellently. Take your vitriol somewhere else you're not going to change anything coming in here and whining. Call your mom or hire an escort or something--it sounds like you need some attention.

I've walked through the B terminal. I can't tell the difference between the Envoy, Express, or Mesa gates. Looks like that whole place needs to get checked.

By the way, whats with the little backpacks all the gate agents wear over there?

It's a little hard not to have good numbers with as few planes as you have and no ACARS.

Getting out on time is really hard when all you have to do is say "ops, out on time and off 10 minutes after that. "

Are you a ual iah 757 pilot? No flame, just curious on the screenname, since you jumped all over me when I said 75 CA.....

Also - pretty sure all Mesa planes have ACARS...

Dolores Every Mesa flight is 2-3 hours late. It's killing our reliability with our customers and killing our agents who are rebooking all day long. How long is this going to continue to go on before something is done? This is NOT the way to run an airline.
