Skywest wouldn't buy them. AMR would for AE.

Funny thing about all of this is that right now in some Gojetzzzz crew lounge all the boyz are probably "buzzing" around saying I heard there is going to be some announcement today that we are getting more Expressjet flying. Sending one another high five texts and phone calls that it looks like they will be upgrading real soon from all this new flying they are getting from someone else *wink wink*.

Kind of makes you think. Class? We don't need no stinkin class!

Plus side is GOJETz is not a likely outcome for AMR. I think TSH and AMR are not the best of friends.

Burn me once, shame on you, burn me twice, shame on......well shame on the bean counters.

I heard AMR approached GoJets about flying the 50 seat RJs, but the GoJet pilots voted it down because they REFUSED to fly the -200s for -700/900 pay. They demanded less.

I can confirm that ASA will get 12 planes in DFW for AA. DFW will be a new domicile for XJT. SkyWest will fly 12 planes out of LAX. Not sure about the start date. I've been told both Dec and Feb. I was told this would be the first phase and that more flying would come later this summer.

I'm not sure if this is a loss of flying for Eagle or not though I assume that it is. I was told something about them returning their entire operation to the East coast. I'm not sure if that means they will lose flying or just trade into more flying out East.

Best wishes to all of you.
