GoJet is likely to be the next Covid casualty of 2020.

sorry to (mostly) everyone there.
They could just be sending out to everyone to get it all covered in case It’s a worse case scenario after October. Looks like the EWR flying continues to increase and who knows what the effect on the assigned flying will be with Expressjet leaving the scene. Parked planes are coming back on line and who knows what will actually happen with the 700’s in various stages of conversion. Supposedly Mesa wants to keep their 700’s but United will decide that with 175’s promised. Also Skywest will still want to lease jets regardless of what airline.

The WARN regulations recognize that it may not always be possible to iden- tify, 60 days in advance, the exact date a termination or layoff will occur. WARN notice may identify a two-week (14-day) period during which termina- tions/layoffs will take place.
Quote:
EXTENSION OF NOTICE
Additional notice is required when the date or schedule of dates of a planned plant closing or mass layoff is extended beyond the date or the ending date of any 14-day period announced in the original notice as follows:
• If the employment action is postponed for less than 60 days, additional notice should be given as soon as possible and should include refer- ence to the earlier notice, the new action date, and the reason for the postponement. The notice need not be formal but should be given in a manner that will provide the information to all affected employees; or
• If the postponement is for 60 days or more, a new notice is required. Routine periodic notice, given whether or not a plant closing or mass layoff is impending and with the intent to evade specific notice as required by WARN, is not acceptable

The government clearly spelled out in the WARN Act blanket notices are not acceptable.

How does the scheduled flying look for the rest of September? Looks like only one 550 parked and just pulled out two 550’s from the future list. They have 34 cities including DCA & EWR with 31 550’s flying it looks like a definite improvement. Not going to get all negative at this point, and we are going to go get those 20 Mesa 700. Just need several million $. How hard can that be?

Mesa has backed down on the conversion rhetoric. Now saying we will just store them with a possibility of them still going to another UAX carrier.

Anyone know what it costs to covert a 700 to a 550?

Doubt it. Plenty of pilots at Gojet to fly the 550’s they already have.

Trying to stay optimistic, no need to be realistic quite yet. Plenty of time to be disappointed later.

The whole concept of zero guarantee lines is pure disappointment. It’s best to plan for the worse!
