Default Go! as bad as GoJets

Alright I'm a little confused. Go! I understand is an entity of Mesa in hawaii that pays its pilots crap and the natives in Hawaii along with Aloha and Hawaiian are all ****ed at them for various reasons. My question I have is that is Go! considered just as much of a scab of the industry as GoJets? I get the two mixed up sometimes I guess.

Gojet pilots makes more $ so Go! is definitely worst.

Go! is not a completely separate entity from Mesa (as is GoJets from TSA) - same pilot group/same union. No scabs there!

GoJet is just a scab operation spawned off of Trans States, while Go! is another undercutting BS operation of Mesa's. They both suck. Neither should be allowed to jumpseat on any other airline.

Actually most Hawaiins love Go! because of the fare war it has instigated. They believe that Hawaiin and Aloha had been overcharging them for decades (probably true). Like airline pax everywhere, hawaiians only care about one thing...the cheapest fare on the internet.

The Hawaiins that work for the local airlines do not like Go! at all, and are the ones generating the publicity.


Go! is mesa airlines... same planes, certificate, pilots, pay, and seniority list. Mesa is crap, but it is not in the same league as gojets, where pilots intentionally sign up to screw their fellow TSA pilots. The old Freedom airlines was mesa's version of gojets, but it has been dissolved. The new freedom is part of mesa air group, same pilots, pay, seniority.

Fortunately for them, you don't get to make that decision yet.
