Folks here understand business, we also understand that the airline industry is very competitive place to work. But we also know that the circumstances that the Airline failed was due to unethical (illegal) business practices which the court system ruled against Mesa. Mesa, operating under the "Aloha" name would be an abomination to folks here. You'd better believe that every effort will be made to prevent Mesa from acquiring the "Aloha" brand. In any event, I predict that "Go-Aloha" won't succeed here in the long run and the name of "Aloha" will return to us sooner than you think.
Go back to HI and stop taking "Mainland" jobs from us.

True statement. But everyone is so stubborn here there is no sense in debating it. The whole thing is just silly.

Probably. That's what happens when you charge peanuts and take losses for years for the hopes of putting Aloha out of business. Didn't JO just report the first ever profit for Go? Like a few thousand dollars. That's all you need to know. There is no way JO was there to "share" the people.

What was the purpose of this other than to show your lack of respect? It has been PROVEN in a court of law that GO! used illegal practices to obtain Aloha's proprietary information and use it against them. I personally think GO! trying to obtain Aloha's name is a slap in the face of every employee that ever worked there. I wonder, does J.O. **** all over peoples graves at night for fun as well?
