Good or Bad? SKW ATL Domicile Opening July 1st
Just recieved this email from Mgmnt today, April 24th:
ATLANTA, GA DOMICILE OPENING
Effective July 1, 2007, Atlanta (ATL) Georgia will become our newest CRJ Crew Domicile.
The addition of this domicile will improve overall efficiency and reduce the number of 5 day trips that are currently being flown from SLC into the ATL system.
We will initially award fourteen (14) crew positions (in addition to the currently reserve compliment already based there).
Any thoughts? ASA guys?
I'm not quite sure about this move and I don't think that I'd bid for ATL either. I have friends at ASA and I wish the best for them so don't get my intentions wrong.

I dont think the ASA guys are going to like that much.. I recently heard an ASA guy compare Skywest to Mesa and GoJets and thought you guys were scabs. I thought that was pretty harsh but i guess he had his reasons.. I heard the same thing from Skyway guy..They are pretty upset you guys got their flying

It's not like Skyway's Mgmnt created an alter-airline called SKW like MAG created Freedom and TSA's created GoJets.

This is probably another step in the slow death of ASA. I don't know, like I said I have nothing against ASA and I want the best for them. Jerry needs to clean house and I think he'll do it one way or another.

But death of ASA? Completely, or a combination in seniority lists?
