Nope. Life support has been pulled and now its just sitting back and watching the whole mess die a slow death. I do feel terrible for those pilots that will be out on the street because of that scumbag Ornstool. Like the previous poster said I don't really feel all too bad for the noobs there since a 5 minute research would have illicited various reasons not to go there. Oh well, to each his own

You don't need to be a financial analyst to read the writing on the wall. Mesa, at least it's U.S. operations, might as well be the Titanic.

do you think mesa has a chance of survival in the states or no?

i say no...the hole is too deep to dig out of
I don't think you're the grammar Nazi without a capitalization in your entire post! Also, you left the apostrophe out of 'don't,' which was kind of ironic!

No offense, intended. I was just struck by the humor of the post.

As long as Mesa continues to offer major airlines with the least expensive commuter flying, they will continue to be the most competitive price wise and will continue to be in business. Major airlines do not care how management treats employees or anything else for that matter. All they care about is the bottom line. Mesa is able to offer the cheapest flying by screwing its employees. Mesa employees are the least paid in the industry. That is way they continue to be in business and will continue to do so. I think the employees of Mesa should stand up to the company and tell OJ and the rest of his team to f…. o…..

They want to go cheap to a point...they want their customers to feel safe. Everytime a regional airline is involved in an incident the mainline carrier is mentioned as well, most of the time, if by no other way than the paint scheme. Not to say that other regional airlines don't have incidents...nobody is immune.

1...nazis dont deserve capitalizing,
2...apostrophes are quotation marks that just didnt try hard enough (so no special recognition,)
and 3...my left pinky only has enough energy to go from q to a to z...nowhere else

losing...

anyone known when and if mesa will settle with aloha? round two doesnt look any prettier by the numbers...
