lol, you lost me there for a second with EJT.

But back on the Mexico ban. I guess an article came out 2 days ago about ExpressJet getting its ops suspended in Mexico because of late ATC fee payments. Now I don't know exactly what it was about, but we were told that our ops would continue as planned. Maybe CAL makes the payments and forgot? Not sure if we would pay those or not since it is under Continental Express, but supposably we're back on schedule.

Would have sucked for a lot of passengers though, COEX does a lot of traffic to Mexico and a lot of citizens and tourists would have been stranded. I bet some of our crews were a little nervous about getting stuck down there too.

Hmmm stuck in Mexico with a margarita in hand and a seniorita who thinks you are her ticket out of the country, or go back to newark, houston, denver or wherever.....why the nervousness??

The person I talked to said that the hotel didn't have rooms for them after check out, today. That would be a very good reason not to be in Mexico right now if your stranded.

I'd take being stuck in MTY, TAM, SJD, OAX, HUX, ACA, PVR, MZT, ZLO, VER, LTO anyday.

But obviously you've never been to TLC, MLM, SLW, LOV, VSA, PBC, etc.
