That does actually make sense. Keeping the planes could have been a good strategic move for XJet to force CAL into a corner. Risky though.

The day tha WN expands to Mexico it will be with their own metal!!! They also would not need 767s, as their 737-700s have plenty of range to fly PHX/LAS/LAX/SAN/HOU/MCO/MDW to CUN/GDL/MEX/SJD etc...

it alows you to spell and use proper grammar. (when it doesn't even have <anything to do with> flying) (gaining).
just kidding...but seriously, college not only shows commitment and trainability, but those who went to college tend to have better communication and CRM skills.
