ASA ATL Ops goes to Mother D tomorrow

[RJidiot]

Of course we also need to factor in a daily bump of 60 additional flights a day with the return of the LAX aircraft. Planes were already lined up on taxiway L west of Dixie this morning waiting for their chance just to enter the ramp. I pray for the chance to park at other terminals.

If they change the benefits, they will shut ASA DOWN! I predict that 4-500 flight attendants would quite on the spot. That is the only reason that they are here at ASA. PLEASE...change the benefits, they we would be GROUNDED (ie..good as a strike) and man o man would it be funny!! The best part...they were too stupid to realize the consequences themselves....hahahaha:laugh:

OK, what percentage of that was fault to ASA ops and what percentage to the daily morning push of all operators. Also factor in ramp controllers, some of whom would much rather have you on a twy then cluttering up the ramp when they have no way to get you to the gate even if it is open. Stby Salley is on day shift now. How about looking at the big picture for a change.

As for the LAX a/c I have not seen that we will bump 60 additional flts a day when they rtn to ATL. If they do then great, an a/c on the ground is an a/c that is not making money. If we will be able to use some of the gates on A and B then so be it. Once the jetways are installed on C I would also see DL buying more mods for the CRJ to use A and B concourse.

Look for another base for ASA in the very near future.

And then look for it to close six months later.

Yeah whatever! Quit being optimistic about it staying open so long!

from the "ourASA" propaganda

Many of ASA’s 74 L.A.-based crew members were disappointed by the news – several had already moved ASA after closures at DFW and SLC. In the wake of Delta’s unexpected decision, ASA President Bryan LaBrecque reiterated his dedication to ensuring future domicile openings are in the “long-term best interests of ASA and our people.”





When the shift is complete, ASA will have five additional aircraft scheduled to fly out of our Atlanta operation – four CRJ200s and one CRJ700. With flights increasing in number by up to 80 per day beginning June 7, every one of those aircraft will be put to good use from ASA’s hometown hub.

Great, as I said, an a/c on the grd is an a/c that is not making money.
