Music to my eyes!!! That means my company saw through you and said no thanks. Good luck at commutair.

 

If Mesa gets these 30 ships then what’s UA going to use as leverage during the negotiations to park 165 50-seaters that are under guaranteed contracts that extend past the 1/1/2016 deadline. Mesa has none to offer up but XJT has over 260. Oh well IDK, I thought anyone who gets these E-175s would remove their 50-seaters at a 2:1 ratio but SkyWest signed a contract that parks none. Although there is an understanding that the contracts on 40 of our 50-seaters will not be renewed when they expire sometime over the next 2 years. But that’s only 40………..

Currently there are 585 total UAX ships + the 40 E-175s SkyWest is getting + the 30 E-175 UA has an RFP out on – the 40 CR2s SkyWest will be removing = 615 UAX ships. By 1/1/2016 that number must be reduced not to exceed 450. 615 UAX ships – 450 = 165 that must be removed.

 

Ok, whatever.

 

Makes sense. Give the worst performer, operationally speaking, the new flying.

 

They only need to reduce the 50 seat jets IF they exceed 153 76 seat jets. And that requires them to purchase new SNB aircraft. With that said, they don't need leverage to get rid of ALL of XJT's 50 seat jets. They will automatically come off as leases expire.

 

I'm pretty sure United's worst operational performer is Express Jet. Nice try though.

 

What did Tall guy do?

Why am I not in on this?

 

He's going to CommutAir as of now, and someone is giving him a stiff upper lip e-style.

 

Mesa, worst performer??? hmmmm site your source scuzzyair. Oh wait, all you have is hear say from countless entitled "carbon copy" regional jet pilots.

perhaps you meant "contractually" instead of "operationally?" I'm not gonna defend it totally because it is what it is. Which is crap, but united seems to like it and so say the numbers.

 

Sounds like standard career progression.
